Beethoven’s Fifth

It only takes four notes to recognize Beethoven’s iconic Fifth Symphony. It’s defiant, ferocious, and instantly unforgettable. Anna Handler, a former Dudamel Fellow, returns to the Hollywood Bowl to unleash its liberating forces, pairing one of classical music’s most legendary statements with one of Beethoven’s rarely heard gems: the Triple Concerto.Acting Concertmaster Bing Wang, Principal Cello Robert deMaine, and keyboardist Joanne Pearce Martin—a triple threat that has spent a combined 71 years with the Los Angeles Philharmonic—come together for the composer’s merging of symphonic and chamber music.The program opens with a short, woodwind-rich piece by Grace-Evangeline Mason, an up-and-coming composer from the UK, that represents her impression of the moon as “a flower of gold hanging in a dark sky.”Programs, artists, dates, prices, and availability subject to change.
