This performance has occurred

Gustavo Dudamel’s arrival in Los Angeles in 2009 was an earth-shaking event, with the giddy breathlessness suggesting a rock star or other A-list celebrity. The reality is that since that time, Dudamel and the Los Angeles Philharmonic have lived up to their billing, delivering on their artistic promise. They stand at the apex.
