Dudamel Leads Songs of the Americas

Sept 30 – Oct 2, 2022
111 S Grand Ave, Los Angeles, CA 90012, USA

Raise your voices! Raise the roof! Joined by the Los Angeles Master Chorale and the Tambuco Percussion Ensemble, Gustavo Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic showcase vocal music of the Americas. Highlights include Yanga, an LA Phil commission from the Dudamel favorite Gabriela Ortiz and “Rasga o Coração” (Tears of the Heart), one of the stirring Chôros of Heitor Villa-Lobos, inspired by street cries of Brazil. Many selections in the potpourri program have yet to be announced We’re promised something by John Adams, but no specific title. Lots to choose from! —Matthew Gurewitsch
