We are excited to present the AMP Youth Choir! Our first 10 week session begins Monday October 5th from 6:00-7:30pm at The Globe (formerly Buxton’s) and is open to youth ages 8-13. Students will gain experience in reading music, ear training, and group singing. They will explore different styles of music and participate in a final concert for family, friends & the community on Monday December 7th. Director Sophia Christensen Price has directed & accompanied a variety of choirs, vocal directed multiple musical theatre productions, and taught private voice and piano throughout the Valley for the last 25 years. She looks forward to working with your student!

Two grand pianos. Candlelight. The music of Elliott Smith.

Kathy Moore, Tim Mechling, Ben Starner, and a special guest come together for an intimate night of Elliott Smith’s music. Stripped down, reimagined, and played the way it deserves to be heard: close up and loud enough to feel.

Settle in with a drink, good food, and some of Smith’s most haunting and beautiful songs.

General Admission OR Tickets INCLUDING food/drink available

Dad’s Diner will be serving up a delicious menu of small bites including pickle-brined chicken wings, deviled eggs, bacon-wrapped jalapeños, and jamón burré, along with a specialty cocktail or mocktail created just for the evening.

Limited seating. Come listen.

At AMP Youth Strings Camp, kids ages 8-13 will have the opportunity to learn violin, viola, or cello in a fun, fast-paced environment. Beginners with no prior musical training are welcome to participate in the Overture Track, and those with prior playing experience on their instruments can participate in the Intermediate Track. Instructors from the Skagit Symphony will teach the basics: how to hold the instrument and bow, how to pluck the strings, form notes with the left hand, and bow the strings. We will also learn how to read music, follow a conductor, and play in an ensemble. Each 3-hour day at camp will involve group practice of note reading and rhythms, instrument sectionals with hands-on instruction, performances by guest artists, games, and rehearsals. Intermediate string players will receive additional skill-building opportunities in separate sessions during each day at camp. At the end of the week we will perform a concert. Campers will make new friends, learn new things, and hopefully get off to a great start on a lifetime of opportunity as a string player.
