One of the most exciting components of each Berkeley Festival is
the Fringe — a series of self-produced concerts by
individuals and
ensembles from around the world. During the 2008 Berkeley Festival,
Fringe performers presented over forty concerts. The Fringe offers
a perfect opportunity for your ensemble to showcase its unique
talents to a large and appreciative audience. Your BFX Ten Fringe
event can take place anytime from Sunday, June 6th, through
Sunday, June 13th.
The San Francisco Early Music Society (SFEMS), producer of the
2010 Berkeley Festival, is offering a range of services for
individuals and groups wishing to present Fringe events. The
services are optional and are available to everyone on a first-come,
first-served basis. They are offered in several categories and
include a calendar of events on the Web, information on available
venues, and support for publicity.
