In January of 2024, they appeared as vetted performers at the ACDA NW Regional Conference Closing Performance, singing a full set of their own as well as collaborating with the renowned Choral Arts Ensemble NW. In the summer of 2024, UW Chorale toured Central Europe with performances at ancient churches and cathedrals in Prague, Vienna, and Budapest. Their fourth CD, entitled Chasing Daybreak, was released on all streaming platforms earlier this year.
