About this Performance
The Hollywood Bowl transforms into Shakespeare’s magical forest when Gustavo Dudamel leads Mendelssohn’s whimsical incidental music for A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Complete with projections on the Bowl’s shell and a narrator to be announced, the piece casts a musical spell, filled with drama, fairies, and more than a little comedy. Spanish pianist Javier Perianes plays with “a combination of evident modesty and utter brilliance” (The Sunday Times) and joins Gustavo for Manuel de Falla’s rich and mysterious Nights in the Gardens of Spain.
