The Bay Area’s favorite Baroque ensemble is back with a new, never-before-heard program of all FEMALE COMPOSERS. Musica Pacifica shares the stage with renowned soprano Paulina Francisco for a magical combination of vocal and instrumental pieces. You'll hear pieces by Isabella Leonarda, Francesca Caccini, Barbara Strozzi, Élisabeth-Claude Jacquet de la Guerre, Elizabeth Turner, and many more! Although the composers on this program may not be household names, their contributions have undeservedly and for too long been pushed to the back of music history. Join us as we explore the less-traveled feminine side of Baroque music. This is one concert you certainly won't want to miss!

Judith Linsenberg, recorders
Elizabeth Blumenstock, violin
