Walt Disney

Eun Sun Kim, music director for the San Francisco Opera, leads the LA Phil through the spiraling passages of Rachmaninoff’s riveting Third Symphony and a brand-new concerto grosso that spotlights the orchestra by the forward-thinking composer Nico Muhly. Then, an outstanding pianist “with an agile technique that allows him perfect clarity in the most complex textures, abundant sensitivity and refinement” (Gramophone) returns to Walt Disney Concert Hall. Alexandre Kantorow, winner of the prestigious Gilmore Artist Award, shows off his sensitive technique with Rachmaninoff’s ever-evolving Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini.

After becoming deeply drawn to “Liebestod” (Love-Death) from Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde, Strauss composed his own musical exploration of what lies beyond life itself. Through stunning harmonies and masterful orchestration, Death and Transfiguration illustrates a man’s physiological and psychological deterioration. In a similar vein, Kaija Saariaho completed HUSH, her self-proclaimed “journey to silence,” during her final months with terminal brain cancer. Dedicated to jazz trumpeter Veneri Pohjola, Saariaho’s concerto features the trumpet growling from its lowest register and gliding downward like a ghost among the orchestra. Susanna Mälkki takes the lead for the evening, conducting Schubert’s chilling yet charming two-movement symphony, nicknamed the “Unfinished.”

I am a huge Disney fan (this is shocking to no one) and when it comes to favorite spots I find myself being a creature of habit.
