Explore LA Tickets: LA Philharmonic - Gershwin & Strauss

On Saturday, May 24th at 8:00 pm, join the Caltech Y for  Gershwin & Strauss presented by the LA Philharmonic Orchestra at the magnificent Walt Disney Concert Hall!

Jean-Yves Thibaudet performs Gershwin’s Concerto in F, a showpiece he says exudes the “utter joy” that leaves every member of the audience and orchestra with a “smile on their face.”  Richard Strauss’ Also sprach Zarathustra was made famous by Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, but beyond the brass and bombast lies a symphonic poem that channels nature, science, and questions of the unseen world. Teddy Abrams leads the LA Phil in this orchestral showpiece and Caroline Shaw’s The Observatory, inspired by the experience of looking down at Los Angeles and up at the night sky from Griffith Observatory.
