Composer and Clarinetist
Read about the Seattle Symphony’s project with Angelique Poteat and the 2019-2020 Seattle Symphony Community Youth Chorus in a feature article by Rich Smith for The Stranger titled Stop Melting the Planet. And there is more information about the April 21, 2023 concert in Seattle’s Child.
Thomas May writes about the Seattle Symphony’s “restorative opening night,” including a review of Poteat’s composition “Breathe, Come Together, Embrace.” Read the full review on BACHTRACH.
Melinda Bargreen of the Seattle Times writes: “Saturday night’s opener was a world premiere by the orchestra’s 2022-23 artist in residence Angelique Poteat: “Breathe, Come Together, Embrace.” Poteat’s new work in three contiguous sections is extremely accomplished and vividly picturesque, with a wide palette of tonal colors and lots of contrasts — all artfully unveiled by Morlot and the orchestra in a subtle, vital premiere.”

While many of those recordings were only available to tune into for a limited time, here are some performances including Angelique that you can listen to at anytime:
