The Concert Choir concert season included an Advent Vespers service on December 2. Their annual tour took them from Seattle to the San Francisco Bay area.
1979-1980 Repertoire

The SPU Singers traveled through the Northwest for many performances. They also traveled to Hawaii for a number of special performances. The group also released a new recording, "Seattle Pacific Sunday."

The Choral Society gave two performances during the year. Their first, on November 30, featured the Christmas portion of Handel's "Messiah" with the Symphony Orchestra. Soloists were Kim Shaw, soprano; Ann Roetcisoender, alto; and Jeff Magaro, bass. Their spring concert, on May 21, was a performance of the entire "Messiah" at First Free Methodist Church. Soloists for this performance were Beverly Booth, soprano; Patty Higer, alto; Jim Morris, tenor; Ann Roetcisoender, alto; and Leon Sandberg, tenor.
