Seattle Musician Killed In Crash, Rain And Driver Inexperience To Blam
Posted on Aug 11, 2010
A well-known and respected fixture of the Seattle classical music scene was killed in a head-on accident last week on Highway 20. Washington Police say that a heavy rainstorm and an inexperienced teen driver were both factors in the deadly car accident.
According to KOMO-TV, 59-year-old George Shangrow was killed in a head-on accident on Highway 20 in Windthrop when a 16-year-old driver crossed over the centerline of the highway and struck the man’s vehicle. Seattle Police say that drugs and alcohol were not a factor in the crash, but that rather a new driver in a heavy thunder, lighting, and rainstorm led to the accident.
The teen suffered a broken collarbone and broken ankle. Shangrow was pronounced dead at the scene of the car accident. The car accident took place just before 6 PM on Saturday, July 31. Highway 20 east of Winthrop was closed for a number of hours as investigators collected evidence from the traffic accident scene and as emergency workers cleared the road.
Shangrow, who was on his way to give a lecture about American classical music, was founder of the Seattle Chamber Singers and Orchestra and the long-time host of the Seattle radio show, “Live, By George.” In addition, he was the conductor for the Pacific Chamber Opera and gust conducted for a number of orchestras and operas in the Northwest.
A celebration of life concert and memorial for Seattle conductor George Shangrow will be held 2-5 p.m. Aug. 22 at University Christian Church located at 4731 15th Ave. N.E. in Seattle.
