The California Festival is a statewide music showcase conceived by LA Phil Music & Artistic Director Gustavo Dudamel, San Francisco Symphony Music Director Esa-Pekka Salonen, and San Diego Symphony Music Director Rafael Payare spotlighting the most compelling and forward-looking voices in performances of works written in the past five years while highlighting the collaborative and innovative spirit that thrives in California.
As part of the festival, the LA Phil will present several programs led by Gustavo Dudamel, highlighted by the return of Canto en resistencia as well as world premieres by Miguel Farías and Gabriela Ortiz. Other programs include an organ recital by James McVinnie, a Green Umbrella concert of new music by California composers conducted by Vimbayi Kaziboni, and a new project from cellist Alisa Weilerstein. Weilerstein’s FRAGMENTS 2 weaves together Bach’s Cello Suites with newly commissioned compositions for an ambitious multisensory concert experience.
