Gaze at celestial wonders through Mount Wilson Observatory's 100-inch telescope, while live musical accompaniment creates a score for a once in a lifetime experience.

This intimate series pairs experimental musicians with telescope observation sessions. Audiences will have the opportunity to gaze through the telescope at celestial objects, which may include nebula, star clusters, planets, or the moon, depending on the time of night. These are the largest telescopes in the world that are available for public use. Each of these eight micro-concerts/ viewing sessions has very limited capacity of 20-25 people and is ticketed at $40 per person.

“Peel back a layer of smog from the LA sky and fold yourself into the blanket of haze. The golden half-light catches glimmers that pass by most eyes. Up here, there are treasures for those who tune in. Matthewdavid operates In this magnetic cocoon, unspooling magic radiance. His music reflects beautiful, fleeting moments and magnifies them. Matthewdavid's compositions float like crackling clouds, antenna amplifying the dreams of the city below.”

L.A. composer and LEAVING Records label founder Matthew David McQueen is largely known for his experimental production including releases on Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder label. After nearly a decade of evolution, Trust the Guide and Glide is at once a powerful statement of identity and a new door into cosmic consciousness.
