About this Event
Barbara Riccardi and Dana Myers, violins

Temescal String Quartet's name is derived from the Aztec sweat lodge where the elements of earth, fire, air and water are invoked to inspire spiritual renewal.
Established 20 years ago by musician/friends in the SF Opera and Ballet Orchestras, Barbara and Jonna are founders of the group, later joined by Dana (2023) and Nancy (2016).
Their debut concert at The Back Room will be Schubert Quartettsatz in c minor, Bartok string quartet no.1, and selections from “Octoroon Balls” (string quartet no.1) by Wynton Marsalis.
Tickets are $25 general admission; $15 for students with ID/low-income individuals. Children under 12 are free. Advance tickets are available here, or if the show is not sold out, you may purchase your tickets at the door before the show.
