Los Angeles

The much-in-demand conductor makes her LA Phil debut this month, ahead of taking up the baton with LA Opera for the next several seasons.

This year, musicians, staff, and orchestra managers are overstretched and facing high-risk contract negotiations.

The Department of Arts and Culture was particularly attentive to small-budget groups.

The conductor leads the Encuentros Orchestra in its first U.S. performances next month.

Myth meets metaverse, and Yuval Sharon meets Gustavo Dudamel, in the LA Phil’s performance of Act 3 of Wagner’s opera.

With Gustavo Dudamel now music director in Paris too, this summer’s performances could be the start of an ongoing collaboration for the LA Phil.

It’ll be wild, but some of it will be wonderful, as live performance mixes with films about and around opera.

Conductors to watch: You’ll be seeing these performers on the podium soon.

World-class performers from around the globe headline this free summer series that brings the community together.

The star conductor says she draws on all her training, from studying jazz to speaking six languages, when preparing a performance.
