SEATTLE, Oct. 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Today the Sapristi Guild of Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center announced its 9th annual fundraising concert, Symphony Seattle. This one-of-a-kind concert will take place in the 2,500-seat main symphony hall at Benaroya Hall in downtown Seattle on Friday, November 10th at 7 PM.
