Musica Baltica: Mägi Ensemble CD Release and Fundraising Concert
The Mägi Ensemble has released their second album "Musica Baltica" and is gearing up to go on tour to perform this collection across the Baltic states this upcoming summer. This CD includes songs from all three countries - Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia - ranging from folk songs to classical to pop. Join us for a wonderful evening of music with drinks and light appetizers as we perform pieces from the new album, some old favorites, and brand new pieces for tour.
This concert is our biggest fundraiser of the year and we need your support to keep our momentum going!

BIG PLANS FOR MÄGI ENSEMBLE
2018 will see the centennial independence celebrations of Lithuania, Estonia, and Latvia. The Mägi Ensemble is honored to be traveling to all three countries this summer to perform our new CD, visit our esteemed namesake, Ester Mägi, and to participate in historic national song festivals in Latvia and Lithuania.
Were also traveling to Portland in March to share this music at the Northwest Division Conference of the American Choral Directors Association, and performing at Stanford in June, both of which are great honors for the choir. We are looking forward to collaborating with Seattle Choral Company for their concert in March commemorating the centennial celebrations!

WHY SUPPORT MÄGI ENSEMBLE
The Mägi Ensemble - a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit - performs and records compositions from the Baltic region that are rarely heard outside of that area, and in some cases have never before been recorded. It is important to us that we be ambassadors for the choral music that galvanized the people of Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania as they earned their independence. In order to continue our mission, we need your support!
