Selaocoe & Tchaikovsky

On the heels of his triumphant Seattle debut in 2023, Abel Selaocoe comes back to our stage with more of his joyous music. An unforgettable fusion of cello, body percussion, traditional singing and heartfelt music, Selaocoe’s performances bring pure, spine-tingling joy. The experience is not to be missed. Tchaikovsky was full of doubts about what he had poured out in his Fifth Symphony, but he came to love it just as millions of music lovers have since he wrote it. Its high emotions strike a universal chord, and Tchaikovsky’s melody and passion in the hands of conductor Giancarlo Guerrero will bring the program to its striking conclusion.
