SoundWaves: Astronomical Scale

On April 24, 2026, SoundWaves wraps up the academic year of exploration of scale with Astronomical Scale. How can we understand the hugeness of the universe? How do we build the robotics to explore the universe? How did the ancients view the universe? And we’ll hear the out-of-this-world sounds of many French horns playing together.

SoundWaves combines scientific lectures about the world with live classical music performances. Each event revolves around a theme, exploring it first from many scientific angles and then through the lens of music. The program begins and concludes with a live performance of music related to the evening’s theme.
