outdoor music at the arboretum


on saturday we ventured down the 210 to the los angeles arboretum for a california philharmonic outdoor concert.  this particular event included a selection of john williams' fantastic movie music (including star wars, superman, and e.t.).

we had a great time listening to the sweet sounds of the orchestra, socializing with our friends, and sampling the selection of picnic food we had brought along.  the lawn at this venue is large.  we got there after many had already staked their claim to the prime seating locations, but we were still able to find enough grass space to spread out on.  we'll know better next time.

jessica fischot at levitt pavilion

for meredith's birthday, we packed a picnic dinner and met up with some friends for a tuesday outdoor concert at levitt pavilion

we had a fantastic time lounging on the lawn, enjoying food and friends, and the beautiful music from jessica fichot - an artist who draws on her french, chinese, and american background (and also sang songs in russian and arabic!).

check out her music.  it is fun and funky.  we were all pleasantly surprised!
