2025/26 Season Trailer: “17 Years”
Watch the trailer for our season-long celebration honoring Dudamel’s legacy as LA Phil Music & Artistic Director.
When Gustavo Dudamel joined the LA Phil, he pushed boundaries—in his interpretations, his pursuit of new ideas, and his vision for what an orchestra could mean to a city. Seventeen years later, our 2025/26 season and his last as Music & Artistic Director, Gustavo and the orchestra continue to scale new musical heights together. We celebrate the music they’ve created, the groundbreaking works they’ve commissioned, and the diverse communities they’ve united across Los Angeles.
We’re grateful for this journey—for the music shared, the horizons opened, and the countless moments that have shaped us.
