Orquesta NW presents the first concert of its 2024 Latino Chamber Music Festival. Musicians from around the PNW and guests perform chamber music works with an emphasis of Latinx and Latin American composers of many styles for a variety of media. The eclectic nature of these concerts allows for the enjoyment of works from the canonical Western repertoire, works by the giants of Latin American music composition, works by living composers, as well as popular and traditional music. Concerts feature several ensembles and are about 90 minutes, without intermission.
