an Francisco’s gut-string era Sylvestris Quartet will perform a program at Westhaven Center for the Arts that explores the cyclical transformation and development of the string quartet. The program centers around two boundary-pushing characters, separated by nearly 150 years: Heinrich Ignaz Franz Biber and Ludwig van Beethoven. We think you'll enjoy hearing this unusual pairing as well as works by Scarlatti, Boccherini, Haydn, and Mozart¬¬¬¬¬—framed with lively insight! The price is $5-20 sliding scale at the door, and a variety of snacks and drinks are available. Call 707-834-2479 for more info.
