The “Anti-CoNTEST/CONCERT”
SUNDAY MARCH 23, 2025
6:30pm-9:30pm
A gala concert- with a twist!
This beloved community event is returning since its last appearance in 2006!! . This one and only unique creation features a concert of outstanding youth chamber groups, in the spirit of great chamber music playing, while doing a spoof on the idea of music competition! A spoof of a contest, each ensemble vies to distinguish themselves with their own theme, costumes and props. -even ‘bribing’ of the judges are all the norm! The bribes are just for fun: - every group wins a personalized award based on their creativity.
This will be held as a public concert at Shoreline Unitarian Church .14724 1st Ave NE, Shoreline, WA 98155
