THIS SHOW IS:
LIVE POETRY
& CHAMBER MUSIC MAGIC
& A SURPRISE YOU WON’T FORGET!
come play with threads of presence and set free whatever is weighing you down!
if you haven't seen this collaboration before, expect an absolutely original evening. silvi’s built a collaborative language with the string quartet using typewritten improvisation, audience participation, physical objects, and the electric medium of presence. the typewriter is another instrument, poetry another line of music.
this month’s chamber performers are violinists maya cohon and pauline kempf, cellist evan kahn, and violist joy fellows. their professional accolades include performing with SF Symphony, SF Opera, New Century Chamber Orchestra, SF Ballet, OneFoundSound, and recording with Sting.
local poet Silvi has written 100k poems on-the-spot for strangers and clients like Google, Facebook, SFMOMA, and high fashion brands that made her sign NDA's.

who is poet silvi alcivar?
@thepoetrystore
silvi's work lives in the moment two strangers meet over her red royal typewriter--the anonymity an invitation to speak, the typewriter keys a willing listener. the poetry is almost incidental. the real work is offering what we all want at the core of our humanness—to feel witnessed and connected, present and seen, spontaneous and at play. while best known as an event poet, she's currently collaborating with musicians, fire practitioners, classrooms, conferences, and more.
