Bach and Mendelssohn on Sept 7th at Hollywood Bowl

Bach’s timeless and sublime musical voice takes the spotlight on the first half of this program—with the orchestral suite that features the popular “Air on the G String” and a violin concerto featuring the LA Phil’s Principal Concertmaster. Conductor Masaaki Suzuki leads Mendelssohn’s sunny and cheerful Fourth Symphony, which was inspired by the composer’s time in the Italian countryside. This performance is generously supported in part by the Kohl Virtuoso Violin Fund.
