the [Switch~ Ensemble] plays SF
A new music ensemble for the 21st Century. The [Switch~ Ensemble] is dedicated to the creation and performance of new works for chamber ensemble, electronics, and multimedia. Our first San Francisco performance will feature works by Streich, Isaacs, Sargent, Pateras, Chandler, and more. Most recently ensemble-in-residence at the Valencia International Performance Academy in Spain and the Eastman School of Music in New York, our 2016-2017 season includes residencies at the University of Chicago and Kent State University, as well as performances and recitals planned throughout the U.S.
