Los Angeles’ own “wizards of new music” (L.A. Weekly) bring their magical sound to an amphitheater set against a backdrop of animal enclosures with a program inspired by the Zoo’s residents. Prepare to experience twentieth-century icon Terry Riley’s Lysol Apes Polka, the breathtaking Bird In Warped Time composed by Somei Satoh, Morton Subotnick’s amphibious Axolotl, John Luther Adams’s exhilarating drum quartet from Coyote Builds North America, and local heroes Robert Fernandez’s Tentacles and Arthur Jarvinen’s The Vulture’s Garden, among other scintillating works – all performed with “exuberance and razor sharp precision” (The New York Times). Piccante to the core!

Arrive early and enjoy an afternoon stroll through the zoo
