Compartir este evento

We're throwing a 450th birthday party for William Shakespeare and his friends! Join us and a few actors for a choral and dramatic tribute to his genius. We will present the very best from this rich trove of inspiring, moving, and witty plays and poetry. Works from the 16th century to the present by Morley, Vaughan Williams, Harris, Shearing, Chihara, Zaimont, and others.

THE CHORAL ARTISTS
SFCA has premiered over 190 works and is the winner of the 2012 ASCAP/Chorus America Award for Adventurous Programming, confirming its reputation for eclectic programming and stunning performances of music spanning 600 years. Under its Roger Nixon Living Music Initiative, SFCA supports the performance of works by living composers through programs such as the New Voices Project for composers under 30, and Composer-in-Residence and Composer-Not-in-Residence programs. The ensemble cultivates innovative collaborations and has performed with Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra, The Alexander String Quartet, Veretski Pass, Composers Inc., and The Whole Noyse.
