We had so many attendees, and those who did not attend due to weather, request another plateful of this wonderful music. So, we are offering an encore performance of the Music of New Orleans. New Orleans is the womb of all contemporary styles of American music and we look forward to once again enjoying it with you! Laissez les bons temp rouler!
– Gary Hemenway, Artistic Director, Walla Walla Choral Society
The Walla Walla Choral Society’s 2019-2020 concert season begins with an encore performance of “Music of New Orleans” at Gesa Power House Theatre on Sunday, September 8 at 3:00 p.m.
Just the city’s name incites visions of festivals, dance, allure, mystery, and history. New Orleans, the cradle of jazz and home to many distinct musical styles ranging from the modern to the traditional. Musical influences and instruments from many cultures around the world, from Congo drumming to European horns, come together to create unique new sounds that could only come from New Orleans.
Reserved seating tickets ($17 Adults; $12 Youth under 18) are available online or by calling the Gesa Power House Theatre box office at 509-529-6500. No outside food or beverages allowed.
