A Musical Genesis
LACO opens its 2025/26 season with a concert of classics led by the masterful Jaime Martín. “The Hen” symphony sets the stage with Haydn’s characteristic wit and drama, followed by the Los Angeles debut of acclaimed cellist Nicolas Altstaedt performing Schumann’s lyrical Cello Concerto. Finally, fate comes knocking at the door with the four iconic notes of Beethoven’s Symphony No. 5—the brilliant motif that launched music history into a powerful new beginning.
