Walt Disney Concert Hall Opening Night Concert and Gala: The Philharmonic Dances

The Los Angeles Philharmonic Gala opens the season at Walt Disney Concert Hall. The concert program includes selections from Tchaikovsky, Bernstein and LA Phil Creative Chair John Adams, in an evening honoring the rich tradition of dance rhythms. Very special guest dancers, presented in collaboration with the Music Center, are to be announced. Last year, the glamorous black-tie celebration began with blue-carpet arrivals, a pre-concert reception, and prime seats for the concert, followed by dinner and dancing under the stars on Grand Avenue.
