Celebrate the legacy of legendary composer, accordionist, and Quantum Listening/Deep Listening theorist Pauline Oliveros at The Ebell of Los Angeles with an extraordinary program curated by musician and 2012 MacArthur Fellow Claire Chase.

‍

This free, family-friendly event will blur the lines between listening, learning, and performing, celebrating Oliveros’s groundbreaking sonic investigations into the physical sciences, and the science of hearing and listening. Chase, joined by special guests, will lead the session, offering interactive opportunities for attendees and young people to listen to and perform several of Oliveros’s important works composed for open instrumentation and interpretation.

‍

Audience participants will have access to AUMI (Adaptive Use Musical Instruments), enabling anyone of any age or ability to play musical phrases through movement and gestures.
