Join us for our opening concert of the year, featuring all the choral ensembles at Gonzaga: Concert Choir, Big Bing Theory, Glee Club, and Musea Treble Chorus!

The Northwest’s premiere ballet company returns to the Myrtle Woldson Center with a new program curated by artistic director Peter Boal for our Spokane audience. The touring company will feature twenty-four dancers performing works from their recent production of Prokofiev’s The Sleeping Beauty as well as contemporary works by Christopher Wheeldon, Ulysses Dove, and Jessica Lang. The luminous Ms. Lang is PNB's 2024-27 choreographer in residence, and her jazzy and joyous salute to the music and art of Tony Bennett, entitled ZigZag is not to be missed.

of the GRAMMY Award-winning Mariachi group Flor de Tolache, and The Poor Choices are an eclectic and talented group of Country & Western musicians from the Midwest. “It sounds wild, right? But as Mireya Ramos and the Poor Choices prove, the two genres share a lot in style, culture, and sound.” (NPR’s World Café).

Ms. Lisa Fischer in concert is addictive. “Every performance is so enriching, so exciting, so transcendent that you want more.” (Minneapolis Star Tribune). Featured in the 2013 Oscar-winning documentary 20 Feet From Stardom about anonymous backup singers, Ms. Fischer receives her accolades. As a backup and featured singer for Sting, Tina Turner, The Rolling Stones, and so many more, Ms. Fischer helped make stars. Described as “a singer of truly prodigious range and delicacy,” "earthy, emotive" (New York Times), this not-to-be-missed evening will be a journey through jazz, R&B, gospel, and rock.
