SFEMS Baroque Workshop Large Ensembles Performance – FREE

Presented by San Francisco Early Music Society

SFEMS Baroque Workshop is back in person after 3 years! Come hear the fruits of the participants' week-long immersion. If you're in Berkeley this Friday, come on by. We will ask you to wear a mask indoors and also show your proof-of-vaccination at the door. 

 

SFEMS offers a nationally renowned series of summer workshops, first held in 1980, taught by acclaimed artists to over 300 amateur and professional musicians. SFEMS offers one of the most comprehensive summer early music programs in the United States, led by a faculty of international artists in residence. The Medieval and Renaissance, Baroque, Recorder, and Classical workshops offer instrumental and vocal master classes, lectures, coached ensembles, and recitals and provide opportunities for musicians and dancers at a variety of levels to improve their ensemble skills, performance techniques, and teaching abilities. The Music Discovery Workshop and Youth Collegium is a day camp for children and youth with all levels of musical experience.
