Maritime Music

Northwest Seaport’s music program strives to carry on the rich traditions of nautical music, and bring to life diverse historical and contemporary maritime work songs and forebitters.

Attend a NWS Monthly Chantey Sing to connect with these maritime folk traditions.

David Kessler leads this traditional chantey at the November 11, 2016 NW Seaport Chantey Sing in Seattle, WA.
