Hailed as “Breathtaking and always exciting” by San Francisco Classical Voice, East of the River explores Medieval music of the Mediterranean and travels eastward through the Balkans to Armenia and the Middle East, exploring the earliest songs of those extraordinary cultures, together with their traditional dances—the origins of which go back centuries. In this program, East of the River lends its innovative blend of sounds to a fascinating and beautiful repertory much of which is little known to today’s audiences. Preconcert lecture at 7 pm. Presented by the Academy of Early Music.

Tickets are $25 General / $22 Members and Seniors / $5 Students. Purchase online, by phone, or at the door.
