The Esmé Quartet has enjoyed a tremendously successful debut as San Francisco Performances Artists-in-Residence, bringing exciting new energy to the popular Saturday morning series with music historian Dr. Robert Greenberg . Reviewing the Esmé’s Schubert series debut last season, SF Classical Voice said, “All in all, it was a terrific performance that made you look forward to more Schubert and whatever other works the Esmé brings to San Francisco.” Saturday Mornings combine full performances of works complemented by fun, factual commentary. Audience members find them the perfect way to kick off the weekend with music and fellow music-lovers—a San Francisco Performances tradition for more than 30 years!

A cornerstone of the department’s season, student performers join Gamelan Sari Raras and take the stage under the lead of longtime ensemble director Midiyanto. This intricate ensemble art form—which famously inspired the impressionist harmonies of 19th-century Western composers—continues to bridge the divide of global music. For the Fall semester, the ensemble will explore gamelan’s past and present through traditional compositions, innovative new works by Midiyanto, the transcendent vocal styling of Heni Savitri, and the stately elegance of classical court dance by Lestari Indonesia (directed by Ninik Lunde).
