Christa McAuliffe Center Presents 2 Performances of Octave of Light Monday

FRAMINGHAM – The Christa McAuliffe Center for Integrated Science Learning is hosting an evening with the Multiverse Concert Series that will perform Octave of Light.

Immerse yourself in a musical celebration of exoplanets with two performances (4 and 7 p.m.), hands-on activities (5 to 7 p.m.), and refreshments. Guests of all ages are welcome!

Multiverse Concert Series is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization consisting of a team of scientists, artists, and musicians. They have performed for WGBH, Boston’s Museum of Science, MIT’s Killian Hall, and Watertown’s Mosesian Center for the Arts.

Octave of Light is an album inspired by the search for life on exoplanets, and the clues that might reveal life’s presence: chemical signs like water vapor, methane, and oxygen. Throughout the performance of the album, you’ll learn a musical language of molecules, elements, and exoplanets – woven into songs for soprano, piano, violin, and electronics.

The 4 p.m. performance is intended for younger youth.

The 7 p.m. performance will include a special introduction and Q&A with Roland Vanderspek, Principal Research Scientist for NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) mission.

Registration is required. 

Tickets are $5/person. Free for all attendees ages 10 and under.

Free parking in campus parking lots.
