Beethoven’s celebratory Seventh Symphony meets Gabriela Ortiz’s powerful “Glitter Revolution” ballet.

Revolución diamantina is Gabriela Ortiz’s bold response to the 2019 feminist uprising around Mexico’s epidemic of violence against women. Named after an event where protesters threw pink glitter at Mexico City’s chief of police to denounce the rape of a woman by local officers, “Ortiz’s atmospheric, percussion-rich score fizzes with a sense of restless unease” (BBC Music Magazine).

To kick off the program, Dudamel channels the ecstatic, whirling energy of Beethoven’s Seventh, described by the composer himself as his “most excellent symphony.” Its introduction simmers and builds with sweet woodwind phrases between booming string chords, eventually soaring ahead to a prancing finale with joyful mania.
