Walt Disney Concert Hall: "Designed by architect Frank Gehry, Walt Disney Concert Hall, new home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, is designed to be one of the most acoustically sophisticated concert halls in the world, providing both visual and aural intimacy for an unparalleled musical experience."
Program: "Prepare to be seduced! After all, whose pulse doesn’t pound and heart leap in delight as they hear the opening strains to Beethoven’s immortal Ode to Joy with full orchestra and chorus or Leonard Bernstein’s irresistible West Side Story and Candide? As for Bolero, there’s good reason it earned 'shouts and cheers from the audience' at its debut in 1929 and has continued to do so forever after - as Cal Phil will once again prove. Maestro Vener and principals Cedric Berry, Suzanna Guzman, Khori Dastoor and Kalli Wilson will stun the audience with features Ode To Joy, West Side Story, Bolero and Candide."
