Review: SOUNDS AND SWELLS at The Conrad
by Ron Bierman - January 18, 2026
Art of Elan launched the Sounds and Swells series several years ago. Artistic Director Eric Starr describes its unusual programs as “a curated pairing of surfing footage and classical music.” The music and footage vary from one performance to another, but always include one or more California composers and surfing meccas. Surfing and classical music? How’s that work? Surprisingly well it turns out. In this performance at La Jollas’s Conrad, Jimmy Wilson and Kyle McCracken’s videos displayed the successes and failures of surfers challenging the ocean. More often than not, the ocean won while the Hausmann String Quartet’s sonorous sounds matched the rhythms and moods of the giant, foaming waves.
