Tremble Staves at Sutro Baths Gallery

An Art in the Parks Concert

Share

The remnants of once-palatial Sutro Baths served as the ocean-side stage for a thought-provoking Art in the Parks concert of "Tremble Staves" by composer Raven Chacon and performed by musical duo, The Living Earth Show. Complete with a cello submerged in the chilly waters of the ruins, the performance integrated with the sounds of its surroundings (wind, water, birds, and more) and prompted onlookers to reflect the value of water as a limited resource and its significance to cultures throughout history.
