A crisp midweek night calls for a hot local composers - or a car with heated seats. But because we don't know how to install heated seats, we'll give you the hot local composers. Classical Tuesdays in Old Town concert series offers a grab bag of awesomeness Tuesday night. It offers world premiers of compositions by Tacoma composers Rob Hutchinson, Greg Youtz, Deborah Anderson and Kareem Kandi. Also, as a "Metal Event" for the Tacoma Art Commission's Metal-Urge focus this month, we'll hear an improvised work by Miho Takekawa on vibraphones (just go with it). Wait, there's more! New Tacoma Symphony Orchestra conductor Sarah Ioannides will drop by to tell you what's what. Catch this wildly eclectic music mix at the Slavonian Hall.
