Reflections presents a night with Steve Hauschildt, co-founder of legendary ambient trio Emeralds. With shimmering arpeggios and chords that evoke spiritual ecstasy, Steve’s live synthesizer sets are famously intense affairs for the body and mind.
We’ll pair Eno’s performances with a projection-mapped light show, transforming this gorgeous, modernist church — and ourselves — in a state of reverential beauty.
Steve Hauschildt
STEVE HAUSCHILDT is an electronic musician based in Tbilisi, Georgia. As a founding member of Emeralds, the influential synth experimentalist trio from Cleveland, Ohio, he explored a sublime astral sound indebted to kosmiche forebears like Tangerine Dream and Steve Roach.
Since Emeralds paused activity in 2013, Hauschildt has released a stream of critically acclaimed solo albums. In 2011, he released his debut LP with Kranky Records, Tragedy & Geometry, an album inspired by Greek muses and the disposability of technology. In 2013, Editions Mego released S/H, an extensive anthology of rare and unreleased works from Hauschildt’s archives. Ghostly International released Dissolvi in 2018, which included “Saccade,” a touching collaboration with singer Julianna Barwick.
In 2025 Hauschildt returned from a 6-year break with Aeropsia, the first release on his new label Simul. Aeropsia (which translates from the Greek as “seeing the air”) refers to a visual phenomenon in which objects appear to float or shimmer, often due to neurological disturbances. Arpeggios climb to heaven, glittering synth sequences pulse, and saturated pads invite introspection toward a system on the brink of collapse.
Pasadena Presbyterian Church
Founded in 1875, Pasadena Presbyterian Church was the first church in Pasadena. After the 1971 Sylmar Earthquake severely damaged its 1908 building, the congregation turned to architect John Gougeon. The current structure was completed in 1976. With a soaring half-arch and tall vertical stained glass windows, its a modernist melding of gothic and expressionist styles. The building is an ADA accessible space.
