Exploratorium

January 22nd, 2026

Fourth Wall Ensemble presents Dark Sky in partnership with the San Francisco Exploratorium as part of the institution’s After Dark Series.

Curated by Elena Park, this performance will open with reflections from USF astronomer Aparna Venkatesan, with music and piano by Christopher Allen, and soundscapes by Phil Moffa. 

Reflect on the importance of the night sky with haunting works from William Byrd, Philip Glass, Caroline Shaw, Andrew Yee (featured on cello recordings), and Kaija Saariaho – including her renowned choral piece Nuits, Adieux – brought to life by Fourth Wall Ensemble.
