The following year, after the work’s first concert-only performance, cheering Parisians carried Stravinsky through the streets. How will Los Angeles react to the Sound Investment commission by young Brooklyn-based composer Timothy Andres in March 2012? Come and find out! “Andres is unquestionably a distinctive talent, with a fine teasing ear for texture and harmony,” declares The Guardian. An accomplished pianist, Andres also joins LACO for “a new completion of the “Coronation” Concerto, in which he has replaced entirely Mozart’s sketches for the left-hand part. “I approached the piece…as a sprawling playground for pianistic invention and virtuosity, taking cues from the composer-pianist tradition Mozart helped crystallize.” Mozart’s Symphony No. 40 brings this scintillating concert to a close–a reminder that the ground-breaking works of today are the beloved masterpieces of tomorrow. http://www.alextheatre.org/calendar/events/index.php?com=detail&eID=519 Sat, 24 Mar 2012 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.alextheatre.org/calendar/events/index.php?com=detail&eID=522 Lucinda Carver, conductor Dancers from American Contemporary Ballet LACO musicians Respighi Gli uccelli (The Birds) listen  Ravel Le tombeau de Couperin listen    Taking their cue from the Baroque court dances of the 18th-century, French and Italian composers Maurice Ravel and Ottorino Respighi created Le tombeau de Couperin and Gli uccelli (The Birds) in 1919 and 1927 respectively.

The celebration of Jeffrey Kahane’s 15th anniversary as LACO music director concludes with particular poignancy. Father and son Jeffrey and Gabriel Kahane appear on stage together as conductor and composer/soloist for the first time. Inspired by the diaries of his grandmother, Gabriel’s new work, a LACO co-commission with American Composers Orchestra, chronicles the family’s departure from 1939 Germany and the journey that brought them via Cuba to Los Angeles. Gabriel explains that the work explores his grandmother’s relationship to Judaism and her gradual embrace of American identity as well as an examination of his own identity as an American Jew. Expanding on the concert’s themes of adaptation and relocation is one of Charles Ives’ most popular works, Three Places in New England, and Haydn’s “London” Symphony with its exuberant finale. http://www.alextheatre.org/calendar/events/index.php?com=detail&eID=520 Sat, 21 Apr 2012 00:00:00 -0500 http://www.alextheatre.org/calendar/events/index.php?com=detail&eID=563 Come April 28th, watch the skies but do NOT stay home!
