# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra presents "In C"
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 02 May, 2026 at 07:00 pm (-10:00)
- **Event Description**: Immerse yourself in Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra’s presentation of Terry Riley’s “In C” amidst the grandeur of historic Hawaiian Hall.

Riley’s 1964 composition, a seminal example of minimalism and one of the most celebrated works by an American composer, features an open-ended score that invites any number of musicians to intuitively repeat and layer a series of 53 melodic modules, ensuring that no two performances are ever the same.

On May 2, 2026, Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra juxtaposes Riley’s modern classic against the mea kupuna of Hawaiian Hall, sectioned by floor into three realms. The string section welcomes guests to Kai Ākea, the realm of the moʻolelo of pre-contact Hawaiʻi. Meanwhile, the kāhea of the woodwind section rings from Wao Kanaka, the realm that celebrates the importance of the land and nature in daily life. Simultaneously, the brass section beckons from Wao Lani, the realm dedicated to the aliʻi and akua in the context of key moments in modern Hawaiian history.

Guests are invited to freely stroll through these realms, guided by the Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra’s talented musicians.
