Step into the warmth of the season with this intimate candlelit concert. Pacific Chorale’s chamber singers offer a stunning mix of timeless and contemporary carols, creating a serene and joyful holiday tradition in the beautiful acoustics of Our Lady Queen of Angels.
A circle represents more than a shape. Circles symbolize a story, a journey, and a promise of connection. Pacific Chorale’s 2025-2026 season embraces this timeless symbol, inviting you to join our artists in a year of reflection, celebration, and inspiration through music
Our season begins with Jocelyn Hagen’s transformative new work, a meditation on what we hold sacred in our lives today. From the bonds we form to the natural world we cherish, her music weaves a circle of meaning that resonates deeply within us all. Celebrate the joy of the season with our cherished Christmas concerts, where festive traditions create a sense of belonging and shared wonder. In spring, Eric Whitacre’s The Sacred Veil offers a poignant exploration of love, loss, and renewal, a reminder that even life’s most profound changes lead us back to connection.
We close this remarkable season with Artistic Director Emeritus John Alexander’s return to the stage, honoring nearly six decades of leadership that has shaped Pacific Chorale’s story.
Step into Pacific Chorale’s circle—our story is not complete without you.
With love,
Robert Istad
