Dudamel and the Los Angeles Phil: the world’s hottest young conductor and his dynamic orchestra begin an adventurous London residency.
When Gustavo Dudamel conducts the Los Angeles Philharmonic, the result has been described as ‘virtual combustion’. So the world’s most explosive conductor / orchestra partnership ignite their Barbican residency exactly the way you’d expect – with four fresh modern classics from the New World.
Gustavo Dudamel’s name is a byword for innovation and energy, just as the LA Philharmonic is renowned for its virtuosity and flair. And they start their London residency the way they intend to go on: giving a jolt of electricity to New World classics by Ginastera and Copland, and sharing the colour and optimism of John Williams and Andrew Norman, composers aglow with Californian sunshine.
