BBC Proms: Dudamel and the LA Phil - Beethoven and Ortiz
Royal Albert Hall, SW7 2AP , [Venue Details]In the second of their two Proms, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and its Music Director Gustavo Dudamel again pair a Beethoven symphony with a contemporary ballet.
The obsessive, often wild rhythms of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7 – famously described by Wagner as ‘the apotheosis of the dance’ – meet the politically charged pulse of Gabriela Ortiz’s Revolución diamantina: music ‘full of visceral primeval rhythms and mysterious, soulful sound-worlds’.
Taking Mexico’s 2019 Glitter Revolution as its starting point, this groove-driven, urgent score – ‘a ritual in motion’ – roars against female oppression in music of fierce, hypnotic beauty.
