Join us for a special Art & Music performance presented by Monday Evening Concerts (MEC). The program will feature works by three composers of the Mexican avant-garde: Hilda Paredes, Julio Estrada, and Victor Adán. ECHOI, MEC’s ensemble-in-residence, will perform under the direction of Jonathan Hepfer.
Founded in 1939 Monday Evening Concerts is the world's longest-running series devoted to contemporary music. Originally envisioned as a forum for displaced European émigrés and virtuoso Hollywood studio musicians, the internationally acclaimed MEC continues to present demanding, uncompromising, and groundbreaking music.
LACMA's eclectic and cutting-edge Art & Music series, winner of the ASCAP & Chamber Music America Award for Adventurous Programming of Contemporary Music, presents world-renowned performers and composers celebrating the museum's exhibitions and permanent collection.
There will be two performances taking place at 7 pm and then again at 8:30 pm.
Presented in conjunction with LACMA’s Modern Art Collection
