On Friday, December 15th the Santa Monica High School Choral Music department will present the 18th annual "Motus Perpetuus," a beautiful and truly unique Winter Choral Concert of Perpetual Motion. During this concert, students sing and move throughout Barnum Hall, and applause is held until after the very last piece, so the music's motion can flow and continue without interruption. The result is a stunning concert experience!
Tickets are on sale now! CLICK HERE to buy your tickets and reserve your seat in advance. Tickets are $5 for students and seniors, and $10 for adults.
Our annual winter concert, Motus Perpetuus features all the choirs in our program. Choir alums are invited to the stage to sing the Hallelujah Chorus and Samohi Hymn of Praise.
This concert is our most popular concert of the year and often sells out, so be sure to purchase tickets in advance.
Please note: there are NO APPLAUSE BREAKS during this concert, and students perform from around Barnum Hall—the aisles, the balcony, the rear of the theater, and the stage, so late arrivals are very disruptive. Because of the unique nature of this concert, we ask that attendees please plan to arrive early for parking and seating, and please refrain from exiting the auditorium during the concert, except in the case of emergency.
Special thanks to Sarah Jane Barney for our stunning concert artwork!
