About this Performance
Sounds of protest take center stage when Gustavo Dudamel leads the LA Phil in music by Angélica Negrón and a world premiere by Victor Agudelo. Special guest singers join the orchestra to celebrate iconic protest music from Latin America and the U.S., ranging from the pro-democracy and workers’ rights Nueva cancion, tropicalismo, and tonada songs made famous by legendary artists like Mercedes Sosa, Violeta Parra, Caetano Veloso, Gilberto Gil, and Simón Díaz to contemporary anthems that resonate with today’s activists.
Due to unforeseen circumstances, Mon Laferte will not be performing this evening.
