About this Performance
Former Dudamel Fellow Gemma New and the LA Phil capture the complexities and sophistications of Mozart’s “Prague” symphony, a triumphant work composed during the peak of Mozart’s celebrity status in the European capital. Danses concertantes marked Stravinsky’s first composition while living in Los Angeles, commissioned at the height of World War II in his signature style. Members of the LA Phil take the spotlight for a world premiere concerto by Veronika Krausus, who composes with a “lyrical sense of storytelling” (Globe and Mail).
