These are six one-hour daytime concerts by university and conservatory early music ensembles: Case Western Reserve University, University of North Texas, University of Southern California, San Francisco Conservatory of Music, Stanford University, and University of California at Berkeley. The public is invited to attend for a suggested donation of $10 at the door. No tickets will be sold in advance.
