Presented by San Francisco Early Music Society

Berkeley Festival & Exhibition event image

At the turn of the 17th century, English people of every station were known to have practiced the occult arts, from alchemy and the Cabala to homespun spells and witchcraft. In the “Shadow of Night,” Severall Friends shall present something of a tasting menu of Elizabethan occult practices, exploring through readings and music the idea of magic as described by its early practitioners. Magical music, creative melancholy, the belief in sprites and fairies, seances, and cabalistic practices will all be touched upon. Each bite is spicy but be warned; they are laced with addictive elements. Many very long books have been written about each morsel.
