About this Performance
Los Angeles Ballet makes its Hollywood Bowl debut, teaming up with the Los Angeles Philharmonic for the first time ever, in a program of orchestral and dance delights. LAB’s Artistic Director Melissa Barak choreographs a new ballet set to Gabriela Ortiz’s Kauyumari—a spiritual and celebratory piece about music’s power to heal, transform, and expose the intangible. LAB dancers also take on Balanchine’s jazzy choreography, described as “tap dance on pointe,” from the 1970 ballet of Gershwin songs titled Who Cares?
Grammy-winning conductor Carlos Miguel Prieto leads the orchestra in rustic, riveting music inspired by the American West and Mexico’s landscapes. Copland’s symphonic story Rodeo pits a local cowgirl against visiting city girls, Moncayo’s Huapango elicits joy through lively Mexican folk rhythms, and Revueltas’ Janitzio kicks off the night with a musical postcard from Lake Pátzcuaro.
