Experience El Relicario De Los Animales (1979) — one of Oliveros’ most emotional scores, exploring the interconnectedness of humans and animals through improvisational sound. Renowned mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton takes on the dual role of singer and leader, challenging operatic tradition while delving into themes of human instinct and the evocative power of the voice. Featuring staged sequences, a grand orchestral ensemble, and brilliant soprano Brenda Rae as both singer and percussionist. Set in a historic indoor-outdoor venue rich with the legacy of Los Angeles County, this event reveals the evocative depth of Oliveros' inventive sonic landscapes.

ABOUT THE
VENUE
Heritage Square Museum explores the settlement and development of Southern California during its first 100 years of statehood through historic restoration and preservation.
The eight historic structures located at the museum, constructed during the Victorian Era, were saved from demolition and serve as a perfect background to educate the public about the everyday lives of Southern Californians from the close of the 19th Century into the early decades of the 20th Century.
Over the past fifty years, Heritage Square Museum has acquired and begun the restoration on eight historically significant buildings from different Los Angeles neighborhoods. Located on acres of period appropriate landscaped grounds, the museum is the place where history comes alive.
