2022/23 Walt Disney Concert Hall
Pan-American Music Initiative
To Gustavo, artists are in a unique position to “build bridges of understanding” between cultures, and Los Angeles with its geography and history is ideally suited to showcase the artistry and invention of music across borders. Launched in the 2021/22 season, the Pan-American Music Initiative is a five-year effort to do just that, featuring more than 30 new commissions, recording projects, and creative collaborations. Join Gustavo Dudamel and the LA Phil for the second season of this musical celebration, featuring music by Arturo Márquez, Gabriela Ortiz, Heitor Villa-Lobos, and much more.
