LAEMMLE LIVE presents The Santa Monica Symphony with Rich Capparela July 14

June 16, 2019 by Lamb L.

LAEMMLE LIVE proudly presents musicians from the Santa Monica Symphony featuring Susan Greenberg-Flute, Sara Canning-Clarinet, Guido Lamell-Violin, Carol Sandstrom-Viola and Tom Lloyd-Cello. The ensemble will perform works by Mozart, Beethoven, Crusell and Haydn. Beloved classical radio announcer Rich Capparela returns to Laemmle Live to host. Santa Monica Symphony, heralded by the Huffington Post as the “crown jewel of Southern California’s community orchestras” has been serving the community through quality, free concerts since 1945.

The Santa Monica Symphony enhances lifelong learning through special open rehearsals and performances at local schools, libraries and community events. The orchestra presents six concerts annually at Santa Monica HighSchool’s Barnum Hall and other locations, including the annual Martin Luther King Day concert at Santa Monica’s SGI auditorium. Santa Monica Symphony Music Director and Conductor Guido Lamell, who also serves as a violinist for the LA Philharmonic, has led the orchestra for the past seven years in well attended concerts of works ranging from venerable masters to cutting-edge composers. The Santa Monica Symphony will celebrate its 75th anniversary in the upcoming season, and Maestro Lamell and the symphony musicians look forward to presenting another exciting and successful season of concerts to delight the community.

The mission of the Santa Monica Symphony Orchestra is to provide free quality classical music concerts to the residents of Santa Monica, Los Angeles County and the Southern California community.

LAEMMLE LIVE presents Dyad in Santa Monica June 2

May 19, 2019 by Lamb L.

LAEMMLE LIVE proudly presents Dyad, an innovative violin and bassoon duo on a quest to explore uncharted territory. After meeting at Juilliard, Niv Ashkenazi and Leah Kohn were inspired to create a new kind of chamber music. Unwilling to let a lack of repertoire stand in their way, they thrive on reimagining classic works as well as premiering new pieces. Through engaging, personal performances, they create connections between audience, performers, and music. Sunday’s performance will include pieces by Johann Sebastian Bach, Gernot Wolfgang, and Niccolo Paganini. Since their first performance in May 2015, they have given concerts for the Wednesdays@Noon series at the Encinitas Library, the Classical Music Series at the Peninsula Center Library, the Cultural Arts Society of La Verne, Newport Beach’s Sunday Musicales, and other performances in Southern California, in venues ranging from the Skirball Center to art galleries and private homes. Dyad has collaborated with Lineage Dance and TranscenDanceGroup on performances which relate stories through dance, music, and other mediums. They have also appeared as guest artists and speakers at exclusive business networking events sharing their music and passion for innovation with a wider community. Dyad has given several world premieres of works written for and commissioned by them. In May 2017, they gave several performances in New Jersey, including at the Axelrod PerformingArts Center and the Kessler Foundation.

Sharing their music with audiences outside a traditional concert setting is a vital part of Dyad’s mission. They perform as an ensemble for Street Symphony, an organization founded by former Los Angeles Philharmonic member Vijay Gupta, which brings inclusive concerts to people experiencing incarceration and homelessness.

Moving, Magical CHASING PORTRAITS Opens Today at the Music Hall.

May 17, 2019 by Lamb L.

Moshe Rynecki was a prolific Warsaw-based artist who painted scenes of the Polish-Jewish community until he was murdered at the Majdanek death camp. After the Holocaust, Moshe’s wife was only able to recover a fraction of his work, but unbeknownst to the family, many other pieces survived. For more than a decade his great-granddaughter has searched for the missing art with remarkable and unexpected success. Spanning three generations, Chasing Portraits is a deeply moving narrative about art, war, and one woman’s unexpected path to healing.

Chasing Portraits is a wonderful film and we are thrilled to share it with Los Angeles audiences. Learn more at EatDrinkFilms.com, where filmmaker Elizabeth Rynecki published an essay. There is also an excerpt from her book of the same name.

Ms. Rynecki will participate in Q&A’s following the 7:30 pm shows on Friday, 5/17 through Sunday, 5/19 and after the 3:10 pm show on Sunday at the Music Hall.

ART IN THE ARTHOUSE presents: THE LOCAL SEEN in Santa Monica June 5

May 15, 2019 by Lamb L.

Laemmle’s Art in the Arthouse presents The Local Seen, featuring the compelling works of three Santa Monica artists, Paula Goldman, Gwen Samuels, and Michal Story. Please join us for our opening reception Wednesday, June 5 at the Monica Film Center. Check out our bonus show, Paula Goldman’s Monuments, upstairs in our Mezzanine. Meet Paula, Gwen and Michal and enjoy the wine, cheese, and conversation Art in the Arthouse is known for. A portion of the sales benefits the Laemmle Foundation and its support of humanitarian and environmental causes in Los Angeles.

About the Exhibit
Artists often see things differently than others, and have a way of revealing new vistas of places that we think we know well. In The Local Seen, three artists—each of whom employs photography in distinctive ways—share their singular visions of Santa Monica’s local landscape.

Paula Goldman collected trash on Santa Monica State Beach between lifeguard towers 1 and 2 and composed the detritus into still lifes. Her intriguing photographs hint at the diverse lives and activities of beachgoers, and also evoke concerns for the environment. Gwen Samuels takes pictures of iconic Santa Monica landmarks and common flora and transforms them into patterns for sculptural dresses and panels, while Michal Story reworks her images of nearby buildings into portrayals of fantastical structures that are at once familiar and surprising. Together, these works offer an unusual, insiders’ take on our local scene—a far cry from stereotypical postcard-perfect shots of the coast or the pier—insights that come from living and working here everyday.

Paula Goldman’s Monuments is a separate show featured on our Mezzanine. Photographer Paula has long been interested in collecting and the role of photography in memorializing artifacts. In Monuments she plays with scale, juxtaposition, and modes of presentation to challenge commonly held ideas about the things she photographs, and to create new interpretations. Small porcelain figurines fill the frame taking on seemingly grand proportions, a “portrait” of a plucked head of lettuce brings new meaning to the term “headshot,” and everyday objects like plastic cups are photographed reverentially. The size of these images—20” x 24”—is a reference to the Polaroid 20×24 camera, Goldman’s personal monument to the vanished medium.

–Stacey Ravel Abarbanel, Curator
