Ethereal Music in Downtown LA

Downtown LA's historic Bradbury Building plays host to the Tallis Scholars this week. Photo via Da Camera.The atrium of the Bradbury Building is one of LA’s greatest interior spaces. In Blade Runner it was a sinister backdrop for the memorable confrontation of Harrison Ford and the replicants he was hunting; this Friday, March 22nd, at 9 PM, it can be seen in a very different light. The Tallis Scholars, Britain’s leading early music group, will present a program of choral music spanning five centuries. This is the latest in an ongoing series, Chamber Music in Historic Sites, which has been matching music and architecture for more than 20 years. It’s a series that every music-loving architect should support, for the range of programming and settings is extraordinary. Friday’s concert is selling fast, so don’t delay. The Bradbury is at South Broadway and Third Street, and tours and a reception are included in the price of admission. Tickets and information at Da Camera.org.
