For two decades, the City Cantábile Choir has been entertaining Seattle choral fans with an imaginative and powerful mix of original scores, Celtic, gospel, ethnic and classical music. The choir has been a voice advocating greater environmental stewardship and building a multi-cultural community.
The People for Puget Sound is a major state-wide organization comprised of thousands of dedicated and active members whose mission statment is protecting and restoring the land, waters and common future of Puget Sound and the Straits. They are involved in legislative activity, stormwater pollution prevention, shoreline habitat enhancement, outdoor activities and education.
A major collaborative effort of People for Puget Sound and the City Cantábile Choir is the OrcaSing. OrcaSing takes place on the summer solstice weekend on the rocky shores of Lime Kiln State Park on San Juan Island and has been featured on both 60 Minutes II and on NW Cable News. At the OrcaSing, the choir sings through special underwater speakers to pods of orcas as they swim by in an attempt to create interspecies communication. In the past, the OrcaSing has been a transcendent and profoundly moving experience for both the choir and audience, and has fostered the goal of increasing our appreciation and concern for these magnificent, intelligent creatures. Tragically, the population of resident Orcas has dropped significantly in the past two decades, raising concerns about the effects of human-caused pollution in Puget Sound. Part of the proceeds of the upcoming "FUN-raiser" goes towards supporting the OrcaSing.
