Come together with friends in support of the Seattle Collaborative Orchestra and Music Director Anna Edwards! SCO relies on your support to advance our mission of diversifying classical music and providing outstanding educational experiences for young people. SCO’s side-by-side model, with professionals playing alongside and coaching at each and every rehearsal, sets our work apart.
In SCO’s 10 year history, we’ve performed more than 25 concerts, featuring 130 compositions. Audiences have enjoyed 17 world premieres and at least two West coast premieres. 50% of all works performed were by living composers, 34% by female composers, and 14% by composers of color.
All guests are invited to make a gift at the event; recommended minimum donation of $200 per person. A selection of experiences and fun items will also be available in a small silent auction.
