Holy Rosary Catholic Church
Northwest Symphony Orchestra continues its season with a performance on Saturday, March 17, 2018 at 8:00pm at Holy Rosary Catholic Church in West Seattle. This concert is part of the annual “Music for the Soul” series begun by the Northwest Symphony Orchestra several years ago.
Soprano soloist for this concert, Alexandra Picard is one of the most versatile sopranos in the Northwest. Most notable for her portrayals of the Queen of the Night, Konstanze, Musetta and Lucia, the Seattle Times speaks of her “bell-like clarity” while Classical Voice comments on her “charisma and spot-on singing” and, of her performances of La Bohème, the Everett Herald comments that she “makes a big impression … and knocks it out of the ballpark.”
