Eclectic Salon - 20 Years of Music Programs at Villa Aurora

On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the German artist residence in Pacific Palisades, Villa Aurora is going to present a series of concerts, embracing the diversity of musical production in Los Angeles.
From sound artists to Brahms, from microtones to poetry and music, this program offers an opportunity to celebrate the scope of musical styles and ensembles, many of which have emerged over the last two decades in Los Angeles.

"Pure Bach thus sounds like Stockhausen, the purest of tones and no vibrato serving as effective means for speeding music to the brain. Funny things start occurring with high frequencies that lie somewhere between what would get the attention of a dog and those audible to a concertgoer. Everything in our bodies and this world vibrates, and when you mess with the essence of vibration, you mess with perception. I would not recommend driving under the mind-blowing influence of Schweinitz." Mark Swed, LA Times
