SFEMS Presents: Quicksilver — Early Moderns: Extravagant New Music from the Seventeenth Century

Presented by San Francisco Early Music Society

Dive into the dramatic, emotionally-charged world of the “stile moderno” with Quicksilver for a one-night-only special performance! The group’s “Early Moderns” program explores the musical innovations of the early modern period, pioneered by Italian virtuoso composers and later embraced by German musicians.

Quicksilver brings together some of today’s top North American historically-informed performers. Described as “drop dead gorgeous with a wonderful interplay of timbres,” (Early Music America) and praised as “irresistible” (Fanfare Magazine), Quicksilver vibrantly explores the rich and virtuosic chamber music repertoire from the early modern period to the High Baroque.
