On December 8, 14 and 15, The Northwest Firelight Chorale presents its holiday concert,
“We Wish You the Merriest! Holiday Hits of the ’50s and ’60s” both in West Seattle at Westside School
Theater, 10404 34th Ave. SW, and in Ballard at Ballard First Lutheran Church, 2006 NW 65th St. Tickets
are $22 for adults, $12 for youth (5-12), and free for children 4 and younger.

The program will include spectacular arrangements of seasonal favorites as they were sung by the stars of
the 50’s and 60’s, including Andy Williams, Eartha Kitt, Frank Sinatra and Johnny Mathis. The
70-person choir, now in its 8th season, is led by artistic director Deeji Killian, a former Seattle Opera
soloist with a theater and dance background. The Northwest Firelight Chorale, who performs all music
memorized, is known for its innovative staging, choreography and expressive performances that provide
an exhilarating experience for its audiences.

The choir has performed at the Northwest Folklife Festival, headlined twice at the Leavenworth Tree
Lighting Ceremony, and opened for famed Irish tenor Emmet Cahill on his last two U.S. tours. The group
also performs at least two outreach concerts per program at senior living facilities to bring music and
healing to those who cannot easily attend its regular concerts.

The choir has embarked on three European Concert tours, most recently this past summer when it
enthralled audiences in France, Belgium and Ireland. In addition to fulfilling its mission to share
soul-stirring music, the choir donated all proceeds from its performances to local charities within the
regions it visited.
