About this Performance
After 17 incredible years of pushing boundaries, pursuing new ideas, and exploring timeless music together, Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic celebrate his legacy as Music & Artistic Director with a specially curated gala of finales from some of classical music’s most satisfying symphonic pieces.
Whether it’s a piece you’re hearing for the first time or one you know like the back of your hand, you can always feel the thrill of anticipation as the music builds. The concert starts on a high note with the lavish jota from de Falla’s blazingly bright Three-Cornered Hat. Then, the party continues pace with selections from Dvořák’s “New World” Symphony—featuring musicians from YOLA (Youth Orchestra Los Angeles)—and Beethoven’s celebratory Seventh.
Also on the program is the blissful “Fairy Garden” from Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite and Revueltas’ rambunctious, percussion-driven “Night of Enchantment”—two movements that highlight Dudamel’s creative chemistry with the LA Phil at its finest.
