Dudamel Launches His Final Season

Walt Disney Concert Hall

Gustavo Dudamel kicks off his 17th season as the LA Phil’s Music & Artistic Director with a beloved orchestral piece that exemplifies his adventurous and exciting tenure. Follow Dudamel from dusk ‘til dawn, through deep forests, icy fields, and a tumultuous storm, as he leads the LA Phil in Richard Strauss’ exhilarating hike. The composer called his orchestral expedition An Alpine Symphony, “since it represents: moral purification through one’s own strength, liberation through work, [and] worship of eternal, magnificent nature.”  

A note from Gustavo Dudamel

Strauss’ An Alpine Symphony continues this dialogue with nature. It is a story of exploration—of climbing toward something greater, through danger, awe, and beauty. This is my first time performing it with the LA Phil, and I’m honored to take this journey with our extraordinary musicians and our audience. —Gustavo Dudamel
