MUSE/IQUE, known for its counter-conventional performances that
feel more like parties than formal concerts, continues “Summer of Sound” 2013
with “Moving Pictures” featuring groundbreaking cellist Matt Haimovitz and Emmy
Award-winning actress Wendie Malick ("Hot in Cleveland") in a fresh
take on motion picture scores by Elmer Bernstein, Jerry Goldsmith, Vangelis, Ennio Morricone, John Williams, Claude-Michel Schönberg and
Erich Korngold as well as the world premiere of Sleepwalking, a concerto for cello and chamber orchestra with
images by Peter Golub, prolific composer and director of Sundance's Film Music
Program, on Saturday, July 27, 2013, 7:30 pm, outdoors at Caltech’s Beckman
Mall in Pasadena. They join MUSE/IQUE
Artistic Director Rachael Worby, who conducts the MUSE/IQUE Orchestra, for a
pure out-of the-box adventure in sound and cinema. Highlights include Malick narrating a
humorous new presentation of Britten’s Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra,
reimagined by writer Matt Nix, creator of the critically acclaimed television
show “Burn Notice,” as well as guest appearances by “American Idol” eighth
season finalist Allison Iraheta and MacArthur “Genius” Fellow John Dabiri,
