Wayfarer - Northwest Sinfonietta
Schneebeck Concert Hall, Univ. of Puget Sound, 1500 North Warner Street, Tacoma, WA, USAbout Northwest Sinfonietta: Founded in 1991 by harpsichordist Kathryn Habedank and conductor Christophe Chagnard, Northwest Sinfonietta is the premiere, professional chamber orchestra in the Puget Sound area. As an ensemble of 34 musicians, the Sinfonietta (meaning 'little symphony' in Italian) is smaller than a symphony orchestra and flexible in size, able to fit in any size 'chamber.' We draw from over 400 years of art music, and program a wide array of works with a focus on our role in our community and featuring new works and artists from marginalized parts of the music world.
