Sunday Afternoon Concerts in the Dome: August 31 - 5:00 PM Show

Sunday, August 31, 2025 at 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM

Mount Wilson Observatory, Mt Wilson

Artistic Director Cécilia Tsan curates thoughtful musical adventures under the magnificent vaulted dome of the 100-inch telescope. The [100-inch telescope](https://www.mtwilson.edu/100-telescope-observing/) is the instrument with which astronomer Edwin Hubble discovered our place in an expanding universe and so expanded our comprehension. The dome for the telescope—designed by Chicago architect D.H. Burnham—is a 20th century temple to science whose acoustics rival the great cathedrals of Europe and provides a unique setting for this ambitious music series. A reception will be held outside the dome at 4 PM. Light refreshments will be served. **PLEASE NOTE: Access to the dome performance level is via a 53-step staircase. Mount Wilson Observatory is a mile high in elevation so the air is noticeably thinner. There is no ADA-compliant access. ** #### **LEELOU AND FRIENDS** **Leelou, **vocals & cello,** Arnaud Dunoyer**, keyboard,** Liam Hayden**, bass Leelou, young vocalist from Paris who was in the finals of “The Voice” in 2017 at age 11 and is now touring as Nefertari in the Musical “The 10 Commandments” in Europe, also plays the cello.
