Clerestory: Prima Materia - Berkeley

What are the building blocks of our existence? Join Clerestory at Berkeley's David Brower Center for a luminous journey through five centuries of choral music, from the wit of Renaissance madrigals to the mythic sweep of Timothy Takach’s Ragnarök. This program traces the elemental forces of earth, water, fire, and air through the voices of Hildegard von Bingen, Samuel Barber, and contemporary Indigenous perspectives. Prima Materia is more than a concert—it is a grounding, occasionally pyrotechnic invitation to listen for the essential forces that endure beneath everything.
