"For decades the San Diego Early Music Society [...] were the only way curious listeners could experience such music live. Although several other organizations now program music written before 1700, the SDEMS remains our leading presenter"
— Christian Hertzog, San Diego Union-Tribune
“Blessing and honor and glory and power be unto thee, oh San Diego Early Music Society, that bringeth unto our still, silent town some Christmas fare other than the Messiah and the Nutcracker and those predictable programs of carols, forever and ever. Amen.”
— David Gregson, www.sandiego.com
“This plucky little society continues to make St. James by-the-Sea Episcopal Church a haven for some of the globe’s leading practitioners of medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque music.”
— Valerie Scher, San Diego Union-Tribune
“The San Diego Early Music Society, which every year is responsible for an undue proportion of the most exciting concerts in town...” ... “The concerts presented by the San Diego Early Music Society...regularly fill St. James by-the-Sea to the rafters, attracting those music lovers who know how much delight can be provided by music before Bach and Beethoven...”
— Jonathan Saville, San Diego Reader
“The SDEMS never engages anything less than the very finest, internationally famous artists for its concerts.”
— David Gregson, San Diego Magazine
“Its standards are the highest. If you’re a fan of music performed as closely as possible to the original from the medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque eras, I would urge you to buy tickets for anything the organization presents.”
