November 11-12, 2023

An emotional and moving New Morning for the World: Daybreak of Freedom by Joseph Schwantner, incorporating excerpts from the speeches of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., caps off a thrilling musical experience in November.  Featuring the west coast premiere of a work by critical darling Anna Clyne, and Titus Underwood’s first ever appearance with PCSO in a work revealing incredible virtuosity, the moments we share in this concert fuel our appreciation for the power of music at its finest.

Please note:

Due to an unforeseen scheduling conflict, the November 12th Spiritual Moments concert will take place at Reynolds High School instead of our usual venue, Gresham High School.

Reynolds High School, located at 1698 SW Cherry Park Rd, in Troutdale, is just a short distance away from Gresham High, and we are excited to bring this very special concert to even more folks in East Multnomah county.

Subscribers can expect to receive new tickets to the November 12th concert – we will automatically seat patrons according to the seats they currently hold.

Please reach out to Patron Services Manager Nicole Taylor de Pelzel with any questions or concerns.
