Twenty years ago a few alumnae of the Seattle Girl's Choir came together to form what was to become Ancora Women’s Choir. With Tess Orozco at the artistic helm, the choir began its now twenty-year journey to become one of the leading choral ensembles in our community. Now led by Artistic Director J. Scott Kovacs, the choir is set to celebrate its 20th anniversary year beginning with Circles of Joy: Celebrating 20 Years of Ancora. This concert features favorite selections from members of the choir, works written or arranged for Ancora, and a few pieces that Ancora has become known for as part of their long tradition of sharing treble music with audiences. You won't want to miss the reception. We can't wait to see you there!
