The Music of the Spheres has never tasted so good! Travel through the cosmos with space-themed musical selections in the otherworldly, intimate Revery LA. Enjoy Master Chef-alum Becky Brown's gourmet 5-course meal between pieces. Stellar is the only way to describe the company Salastina Music Society (SMS) will keep at this event. Meet three astronomers and music lovers who’ll share “secrets of the universe” as well as the millenia-old kinship between music and astronomy. NASA astronomer Steve Bryson, a man tasked with discovering how many Earth-like planets there are in the universe, performs the theremin alongside Salastina’s string quartet. He’ll also share a little about his scientific work. Two lovely French employees of LIGO let us in on their groundbreaking scientific work listening to the actual sounds of the universe to draw meaningful insights about its origins. (NBD: it won the Nobel Prize in 2017.) Theme Edit’s Mercedes Curran provides experience design for this immersive, fascinating, delicious event unlike any other in the universe. SMS will post the menu (and vegan option) soon. Check back for updates. Artists: Kevin Kumar and Maia Jasper White (Co-Artistic Directors and Violinists), Yoshika Masuda (Resident Cellist), Linnea Powell (Guest Violist), Steve Bryson (Guest Theremin Player and Speaker), Arnaud Pele and Marie Kasprczak (Guest Speakers), Becky Brown (Chef) and Mercedes Curran (Experience Designer). Program:  Selections from John Williams’ "Star Wars" score, Hans Zimmer’s "Interstellar" score, Gustav Holst’s "The Planets", and more. Purchase tickets at the above link.
