LAPhil: Beethoven and Ortiz

August 12 @ 7:00 pm

The Los Angeles Philharmonic and its Music Director Gustavo Dudamel pair Beethoven’s dance-infused Symphony No. 7 with a contemporary ballet by Mexican composer Gabriela Ortiz, Revolución diamantina: music ‘full of visceral primeval rhythms and mysterious, soulful sound-worlds’. Taking Mexico’s 2019 Glitter Revolution as its starting point, this groove-driven, urgent score – ‘a ritual in motion’ – roars against female oppression in music of fierce, hypnotic beauty.
