The Alaska Suite concert
Seattle-based, award-winning composer Nelda Swiggett and her five-piece chamber jazz ensemble is coming to Port Angeles, Sequim and Port Townsend on Dec. 1-2 for a tour of her original work, “The Alaska Suite: a story of beauty, loss and hope.” This concert is a musical reverie on the tenuous beauty of the Arctic. But it is not just a concert. The performance engages the power of artistic expression — live music, spoken words, images and poetry — to connect audiences deeply and emotionally to the scientific realities of climate change. Featuring Nelda Swiggett (compositions, piano, narrative, curated images), Julian Smedley (violin), Clif Swiggett (trombone), Chris Symer (bass), Adam Kessler (drums), and the poetry of Jill McGrath. Hosted by Local 20/20 and Olympic Climate Action.
