Welcome to Our 2025-2026 Season!
Giving
Voice
In our 2025–2026 season, Whatcom Chorale gives voice to humankind’s struggles and sorrows, and ultimately our resolve and joy. In November, we reprise Sarah Mattox’s Heart Mountain Suite—more timely now than ever—and premiere new works by our resident composer, Scott Henderson. For May’s Songs of Solace, featuring works by Bach, Brahms, and Boulanger and culminating in Bruckner’s Mass in E minor, we are joined by wind instruments of Whatcom Chorale Sinfonia.
