PBO concerts are always a treat. Hearing familiar pieces played on period instruments gives me a new appreciation for the music.

I was very impressed with the Baroque Orchestra. I would however never sit in the rear balcony again, because you can't see the orchestra as the incline of the church seats is not steep enough. The equisetic were excellent it was just the visual that was lacking. I would sit in front balcony or in the lower level.

About the Ticket Supplier: Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra

San Francisco's Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra has been dedicated to historically-informed performance of Baroque, Classical and early-Romantic music on original instruments since its inception in 1981.

Under the leadership of Nicholas McGegan, its Music Director since 1985, Philharmonia has become "an ensemble for early music as fine as any in the world today" (Los Angeles Times). The Orchestra performs a subscription season in four cities in the San Francisco Bay Area, and is regularly heard on tour in the United States and internationally. In addition to Mr. McGegan, the Orchestra has welcomed eminent guest conductors to its podium including William Christie, Andrew Parrott, Jordi Savall, Gustav Leonhardt, Monica Huggett and Stanley Ritchie.
