After sold-out performances with the CSO and the world-wide success of his Simón Bolívar Youth Orchestra, Chicago audiences eagerly await his inaugural tour with his new orchestra.

Hailed as one of the most exciting and compelling conductors of our time, Gustavo Dudamel begins his tenure as Music Director of the Los Angeles Philharmonic in the fall of 2009. His infectious energy and exceptional artistry have made him one of the most sought-after conductors by orchestras around the world. He embarks on an ambitious tour with the Los Angeles Philharmonic and makes a stop at Symphony Hall for a spellbinding program including Mahler’s massive Symphony No. 1 and John Adams’ newest symphonic work City Noir, a piece commissioned for Dudamel’s opening program with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. Don’t miss this electrifying concert as one of the premiere orchestras in the world and its vibrant new conductor bring their exceptional artistry to Phoenix.
