\nFounded in 1991 by harpsichordist Kathryn Habedank and conductor Christophe Chagnard, the Northwest Sinfonietta is a 35-member ensemble and the premiere chamber orchestra in the Puget Sound region. It blends the intimacy of chamber music with the power of a full orchestra. In 2015, the Northwest Sinfonietta became one of the few orchestras in the world to move to an Artistic Partner model of operations, giving the musicians of the ensemble a larger role in the programming and vision for the ensemble.<\/p>\n
