Salastina is a visionary chamber ensemble and presenting organization.

Winner of San Francisco Classical Voice’s Audience Choice Award for “Best Chamber Ensemble” and “Best Streaming Series,” Salastina is a 21st-century reimagining of the chamber music salon: a place where musicians and audience members gather to share in the beauty of the art form through performance and conversation, whether in-person for intimate, local audiences or online for tens of thousands around the world.

Salastina presents up to 25 public performances per year, most of which are live-streamed online. Integral to Salastina’s live concerts: context and storytelling, dynamically provided by Resident Host and Artistic Partner Brian Lauritzen, as well as ample opportunities for audience members and musicians to engage in conversation.
