      <image:caption>Puccini’s blockbuster opera returns to our stage starring Janai Brugger as the sweet but suffering Mimi and Oreste Cosimo as the lovestruck Rodolfo, with Gihoon Kim and Erica Petrocelli as the on-again-off-again lovers Marcello and Musetta.  Resident Conductor Lina González-Granados leads Puccini’s transcendent score, awash in lavish Romanticism and gorgeous melodies. Director Brenna Corner helms a timeless production from Herbert Ross that the LA Times calls a “warm, nostalgic evocation of Paris in Puccini’s time.” Rodolfo is a struggling poet burning his manuscripts to keep out the winter chill. Mimi is a fellow tenant with big dreams and a deadly illness. A chance meeting has them falling in love, but when you’re at the bottom of Parisian society, every day could be your last.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Philharmonic: Gracias Gustavo - Gustavo Dudamel honors his Venezuelan and American identities, presiding over two poetry-inspired choral symphonic works in his final Walt Disney Concert Hall program as Music &amp; Artistic Director. At times hushed and mysterious and at others pulsating and ecstatic, Harmonium was a breakthrough for John Adams’ compositional voice. Borrowing texts from Emily Dickinson and John Donne, Adams explores time, harmony, and rhythm, unraveling gentle meditations into an awe-inspiring swirl of sound.</image:title>
      <image:caption>In the second half, Dudamel guides Cantata Criolla, another breakthrough work that is not just definitive of composer Antonio Estévez’ voice but an emerging national Venezuelan style. The cantata follows Florentino, a troubadour on the Venezuelan plains who challenges the devil to a battle of wit and song. Estévez’s cross-cutting rhythms and musical textures follow the contest from ominous peril to triumph. Driven by his belief that music can build bridges between cultures, Dudamel selected the cantata as one of the first pieces he wanted to bring to Los Angeles in his inaugural season as Music Director, and it fittingly sets the stage for Gustavo’s finale concert of the 2025/26 season.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Master Chorale: Sound Waves - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sound Waves: The Music of Esmail, Garrett, and Woo offers three powerful meditations on water including Malhaar: A Requiem for Water by Swan Family Artist-in-Residence Reena Esmail, alongside new works by composers Marques L. A. Garrett and Hyowon Woo. With Malhaar, Reena explores the universal theme of water through a cross-cultural lens, emphasizing that we are all citizens of the earth connected by a huge ecosystem in which water is a life force. Reena was inspired by William O’Daly’s book “Water Ways,” a poetic exploration of the disappearance of water. O'Daly is known for his English translations of the poetry of Pablo Neruda, and is also a Research Writer at the California Department of Water Resources and is the Lead Writer for the California Water Plan. Reena uses O’Daly’s text throughout the piece, intermingled with movements from the traditional requiem text. Overlaid on this texture are passages in Sanskrit and Hindi. The work moves through the various forms of Raag Malhaar (monsoon raags), to convey the importance and power of water, which holds a sacred place in Indian classical music. The work features Hindustani vocalist Saili Oak.  American composer Marques L. A. Garrett and South Korean composer Hyowon Woo are two of the most exciting and innovative creative voices in the contemporary choral music landscape. Garrett is the Associate Professor of Choral Studies at the University of North Texas, and an active conductor and composer. A versatile baritone and countertenor, Garrett’s performances span both solo and choral works, and he is recognized for his research on non-idiomatic choral music by Black composers. Hyowon Woo, known for her innovative and expressive choral compositions, often incorporates elements of Korean musical aesthetics while staying rooted in the Western choral tradition, making her compositions both unique and compelling.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Master Chorale: Common Ground - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The first of the Master Chorale's commissioned world premieres this season is by five-time Emmy®-winning composer Jeff Beal, known for his scores for TV shows like House of Cards, Monk, and Rome, as well as films such as Pollock and Blackfish. Part of Common Ground: The Music of Górecki and Jeff Beal, Beal’s new work, The Beatitudes, will be paired with Henryk Górecki’s Miserere, a deeply moving piece inspired by the Polish Solidarity movement of the 1980s. Composed in 1981 as a protest against Soviet-backed government intervention, Miserere was not premiered until 1987 due to martial law. With just five words in its text—“Domine Deus noster, Miserere nobis” (“Lord our God, have mercy on us”)—Górecki creates an oasis of peace and compassion. The Chorale first performed Miserere in 2002 during Grant Gershon’s inaugural season as Artistic Director and recorded Miserere in 2013 for Decca.</image:caption>

Nearly 75-minutes in length with five movements—the last featuring a men’s chorus—and one of the largest orchestras of the entire genre, it requires nothing less than a herculean effort by the soloist not to mention the more than 100 other musicians performing.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Pianist Igor Levit, a noted champion of Busoni who has called the concerto, “a piece to widen your curse words repertoire,” rises to its considerable challenges. Together with LA Phil Conductor Laureate Esa-Pekka Salonen and men of the Los Angeles Master Chorale, he explores Busoni’s grand utopian vision. Reviewing Levit and Salonen’s 2023 performance of the concerto in San Francisco, the Los Angeles Times raved “...the communal exultation of Levit, Salonen, the orchestra and chorus captured something so large and impractically visionary, something that had so much to say about the society to which we aspire, that one could walk out of the concert hall convinced we can make a difference.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Master Chorale: Two Titans - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>The Los Angeles Master Chorale begins its 2025-26 season with TWO TITANS: THE MUSIC OF BEETHOVEN AND VERDI featuring Beethoven’s Mass in C major, Op. 86 and Verdi’s Four Sacred Pieces—monumental works that embody themes of spiritual devotion, human empathy, and the search for solace in times of uncertainty. Beethoven’s Mass in C major, Op. 86, with its grandeur and intricate choral harmonies, reflects a deep sense of reverence and aspiration. Similarly, Verdi’s Four Sacred Pieces, written in the composer’s later years, explores themes of gratitude, redemption, and divine presence. Parts of Beethoven's Mass in C major, Op. 86 premiered on the same legendary concert as his 5th and 6th Symphonies and his 4th Piano Concerto, making that the most “stacked” program in the history of music. Verdi wrote the Four Sacred Pieces as he was putting the finishing touches on his masterpieces Otello and Falstaff. Of the four pieces, Verdi liked the Te Deum so much that he reportedly wanted to be buried with the score.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Philharmonic:   Mozart's Requiem - Mozart’s enduring Requiem owes some of its timeless staying power to the composer’s death prior to its completion—further made a thing of mystery and “what if?” by the Oscar-winning film Amadeus—but its true appeal is plain to hear in Mozart’s final musical expression of humanity and mortality. The New York Times has praised James Gaffigan’s interpretation of the Requiem for its “uncommon drama,” and the conductor leads Mozart’s memorable funeral mass with a stellar cast of soloists and the Los Angeles Master Chorale. In the first half, Gaffigan navigates Ellen Reid’s Body Cosmic, which offers a meditation on the surreality of pregnancy, as well as Brahms’ “Song of Destiny,” a brief but masterful choral and symphonic that has been called a “Little Requiem.”</image:title>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Opera: Falstaff - James Conlon conducts one of his personal favorites, Verdi's utterly delightful comic masterpiece. Longtime company favorite Craig Colclough stars as the boastful Falstaff, leading a brilliant ensemble cast that includes Nicole Heaston, Ernesto Petti and Hyona Kim among the pranksters all too happy to take the errant knight down a peg, with Deanna Breiwick and Anthony León as the young lovers desperate to steal a private moment to themselves among the madness. This classic comedy gets an equally classic staging by Lee Blakeley, with atmospheric sets and sumptuous period costumes designed by Adrian Linford.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Sir John Falstaff finds himself a bit short on cash, so he hatches a scheme: seduce two merry (and wealthy) wives of Windsor and live out his days in luxury. Too bad this bumbling knight happened to send both his targets the same love letter! Now Alice Ford and Meg Page are set on teaching Falstaff a lesson, and it's not long before a long list of his adversaries join in. Audiences are in for a whirlwind of disguises and deceptions, and maybe even an unexpected dip in the River Thames.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Opera: La Bohème</image:title>
      <image:caption>Puccini’s blockbuster opera returns to our stage starring Janai Brugger as the sweet but suffering Mimi and Oreste Cosimo as the lovestruck Rodolfo, with Gihoon Kim and Erica Petrocelli as the on-again-off-again lovers Marcello and Musetta.  Resident Conductor Lina González-Granados leads Puccini’s transcendent score, awash in lavish Romanticism and gorgeous melodies. Director Brenna Corner helms a timeless production from Herbert Ross that the LA Times calls a “warm, nostalgic evocation of Paris in Puccini’s time.” Rodolfo is a struggling poet burning his manuscripts to keep out the winter chill. Mimi is a fellow tenant with big dreams and a deadly illness. A chance meeting has them falling in love, but when you’re at the bottom of Parisian society, every day could be your last.</image:caption>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Opera: West Side Story - Countless fans know and love Leonard Bernstein’s landmark work, but few have seen it like this. Originally conceived as an opera, we’re paying tribute to Bernstein’s impact with the grand operatic treatment. Rather than a small-scale instrumental ensemble, we’re unleashing the power of the LA Opera Orchestra—not to mention a magnificent cast in top vocal and physical form. Be there as James Conlon and director Francesca Zambello dive into one of the most emblematic works of American theater with this elevated, maximalist take that incorporates the iconic original choreography created by the legendary Jerome Robbins.</image:title>

Originally conceived as an opera, we’re paying tribute to Bernstein’s impact with the grand operatic treatment. Rather than a small-scale instrumental ensemble, we’re unleashing the power of the LA Opera Orchestra—not to mention a magnificent cast in top vocal and physical form. Be there as James Conlon and director Francesca Zambello dive into one of the most emblematic works of American theater with this elevated, maximalist take that incorporates the iconic original choreography created by the legendary Jerome Robbins.</image:title>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Master Chorale: Rufus Wainwright’s Dream Requiem - The Chorale presents the highly anticipated U.S. premiere of Rufus Wainwright’s Dream Requiem with Jane Fonda as the narrator. Dream Requiem merges two long standing creative visions — Wainwright’s fascination with Byron's poem Darkness, depicting global upheaval after the 1815 Mount Tambora eruption, and his lifelong admiration for the great Requiems of Verdi, Berlioz and Britten. This powerful and evocative modern-day requiem, with sublime harmonies and emotive storytelling, is an opulent composition that seamlessly weaves together Wainwright’s distinctive musical voice with the timeless liturgy of the Latin Requiem Mass.</image:title>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Master Chorale: Sacred Spaces - There are sacred spaces in each one of us which music alone can unlock—that feeling when your soul is lifted up by sublime voices ascending to the heavens. In this concert, the Grammy® Award-winning L.A. Master Chorale, led by Kiki and David Gindler Artistic Director Grant Gershon, explores that divine spark through music that spans five centuries and four continents. Anchored by a breathtakingly gorgeous Palestrina mass (composed in the 16th century for the Sistine Chapel), through works of Anton Bruckner, Alice Parker, Moses Hogan and Hyo-Won Woo, this concert will transport you to a place of true serenity and transcendence. As a special highlight you will experience one of the classics of our time, Morten Lauridsen’s O Magnum Mysterium, sung by the ensemble for which it was written, in an intimate acoustical environment. Join us to rediscover the sacred spaces in our city and inside of you.</image:title>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Master Chorale:           We ❤️ LA - Gustavo Dudamel, the Los Angeles Philharmonic, global superstar Christina Aguilera, and additional special guests come together for a free concert recognizing the bravery and selflessness on display during the Los Angeles wildfires. Known for her remarkable impact on pop music, Aguilera brings her powerhouse voice back to the Bowl, reuniting with Dudamel and the LA Phil for an extraordinary night honoring first responders and impacted community members. Leading contemporary composer Gabriela Ortiz champions the idea that “music has the power to grant us access to the intangible, healing our wounds and binding us to what can only be expressed through sound.” The orchestra takes up this powerful calling with Ortiz’s celebratory Kauyumari, followed by Mahler’s poignant “love letter” and a selection of film-music favorites by the legendary John Williams. Gerald Clayton, the six-time Grammy-nominated pianist raised in Altadena, joins the LA Phil for Gershwin’s jazzy and intricate Variations on “I Got Rhythm,” the Palisades Charter High School Band helps kick off the evening with “The Star-Spangled Banner,” and more special guests (to be announced) perform additional symphonic classics.</image:title>

      <image:title>UPCOMING - LA Opera: Così fan tutte</image:title>
      <image:caption>The wine is flowing a little too freely, and two young men enter into a risky (and risqué) bet: Each will try to seduce the other’s fiancée. Hijinks ensue, with dashing disguises, outrageous flirting, and, of course, wedding bells—but we won't say who ends up together!  Mozart’s razor-sharp comedy is back in a delightful production first created by director Michael Cavanagh. A stylish set by Erhard Rom updates the action to a swanky American country club, bursting with kitsch and color. James Conlon conducts a fantastic ensemble cast, led by longtime LA Opera favorites Ana María Martínez and Rod Gilfry as the schemers behind the deception. Featuring an endless parade of exquisite ensembles, Mozart’s deliciously scandalous opera is a can’t-miss for newcomers and seasoned fans alike.</image:caption>
