“This festival is one that is meant to link us as a people so that borders dissolve, and we find those common threads and musical moments which unite North and South America as one. This is our music.” – Gustavo Dudamel, Festival Director.
Americas and Americans is a festival that celebrates music from North and South America and the shared heritage and cultural experiences across the hemispheres. With a long-standing belief that barriers can be broken through art, Americas and Americans brings to life Dudamel’s global vision of a multi-cultural community unified by music. One of the major events of his 2009/10 inaugural season at Walt Disney Concert Hall with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Americas and Americans now comes to the Hollywood Bowl in a week-long celebration encompassing a wide-ranging program that spans the musical spectrum.
Americas & Americans will take place August 14 - 19.
