This provides visitors with the unique opportunity to see how a concert program comes together\, the mystery of the orchestra and the dynamics of the members unveiled. The rehearsals are a profound p art of the process - this is where all the work takes place. During rehear sals the music is raw\, incomplete and individual elements are worked thro ugh as well as issues like pitch\, style\, color. Drop in to see all the p arts fall into place.\n\n\n\nFor BACH-BQ wild Up tackles a Brandenburg Cyc le: taking something old and making it new. The group offers a vision of the future of classical music with six recomposed Brandenburg Concerti. Th ere will be virtuosic strings and screaming piccolo trumpets\, baritone sa xophones and an electric bassoon. Join us for a festive\, end of summer co ncert in the courtyard.\n\n\n \;\n\n\nABOUT THE RESIDENCY\nwild Up is a 24-member experimental classical/contemporary ensemble comprised of Los Angeles musicians committed to creating visceral\, thought-provoking happe nings. By mixing traditional classical works\, challenging new composition s and indie music\, their insightful programming looks to change the exper ience of the classical concert and reconceptualize the role of an orchestr a in its community. Throughout a performance wild Up creates an active exp erience for the audience by sharing the contextual and inspirational impet us for their program. The ensemble practices a philosophy of radical-inclu sionism: audience members are invited to experience concerts the way that they see fit\, and absolutely no music is off limits.\n\n\n\nWhen visiting the museum from July through December visitors will encounter vibrant per formances\, projects\, and interactive installations. Stop by to find out what’s possible when an orchestra takes on a museum.\n\n\n \;\n\n\nA BOUT PUBLIC ENGAGEMENT\nPart of the curatorial department\, the Public Eng agement program collaborates with artists to develop and present works tha t create an exchange among the artist\, the museum\, and the visitor.
