In a highly anticipated return to San Diego, Le Poème Harmonique, led by Vincent Dumestre with mezzo-soprano Eva Zaïcik, will open the San Diego Early Music Society's 2023-2024 season with a lush program of music that would have been heard in the court of young Louis XIV before Versailles. The ensemble will perform popular songs drawn from the group’s award-winning collections of traditional French chansons, as well as music by Moulinié, de Lalande, and Charpentier, and excerpts from the first operas by Lully and Cavalli performed in France—the repertoire that has earned the ensemble countless accolades. Releasing more than twenty albums since 2018, the prolific ensemble has been described as “tremendously skilled and fetchingly entertaining” (Jon Sobel, Blogcritics, 2016), while Eva Zaïcik has been praised for her “clear mezzo-soprano voice…tonal purity, tightly controlled vibrato and fluent virtuosity” (Nicholas Anderson, Classical Music, 2022).

On Saturday, October 14, a solar eclipse will be visible in San Diego, and the Fleet Science Center is hosting a viewing party, outside the Fleet, in front of the iconic Bea Evenson Fountain. The event is free and begins at 8 a.m. The Fleet will provide complimentary NASA 3-D eclipse glasses so everyone can watch the wonder of this cosmic event safely. An annular solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth while the Moon is at its farthest point from the Earth, according to NASA. The result is that the Moon appears smaller than the Sun and does not completely cover it, creating a spectacular “ring of fire effect.” San Diegans’ experience will be a partial eclipse. The eclipse will begin at 8:09 a.m. as the Moon appears to touch the Sun’s edge. The climax, when the Moon is closest to the center of the Sun, will be visible from San Diego at 9:26 a.m. Viewers will see the most exciting moments between 8:45 and 9:45 a.m., with the eclipse concluding at 10:52 a.m., as the Moon leaves the Sun’s edge. The Fleet’s resident astronomer, Lisa Will, Ph.D., along with additional local astronomy and eclipse experts, will be on hand to answer questions and converse. Three hands-on demonstration stations will feature activities, including crafting solar viewers, led by Fleet education professionals. In addition, the Fleet will connect everyone to the power of science earlier than its usual 10 a.m. open time. Craveology Café and the North Star Science Store will open at 8 a.m. so eclipse viewers can enjoy coffee and breakfast and shop for safe-viewing eclipse glasses and other eclipse-themed merchandise. The Fleet galleries will open an hour early at 9 a.m. and will feature special eclipse programming Special presentation of the Fleet’s popular The Sky Tonight Eclipse-themed activities in Studio X, the Fleet’s creative makerspace Demonstrations throughout the building Live feed of the eclipse in the Fleet’s Lecture Hall Please note: Special equipment is needed to observe the eclipse. IT IS NOT SAFE TO LOOK DIRECTLY AT THE SUN DURING A PARTIAL SOLAR ECLIPSE! Looking directly at the eclipse can cause permanent eye damage. Telescopes and binoculars can be used to project images of the Sun on a flat surface, much like a pinhole camera. Special Eclipse Shade glasses are available to purchase from the Fleet’s North Star Science Store. If you wish to observe through a telescope, you need a solar filter and cannot use your typical spotting scope to align. Fleet Science Center on Facebook / Instagram
