HAYDN’S CREATION

Los Angeles Master Chorale will celebrate its 2022/23 season, Oct. 8-9, with a performance of HAYDN’S CREATION, the composer’s grand celebration of the dawn of life.
   

   
With a libretto that draws on Genesis, the Psalms, and Milton’s “Paradise Lost,” Haydn’s mysterious and dramatic work transports audiences to a time before time itself, followed by an explosion of sound that vividly illustrates the creation of earth. It results in what has been called “one of the most joyous and life-affirming works ever written.”

Grant Gershon conducts 80 singers, soloists and orchestra. There will be a Listen Up! Pre-concert talk with him and Alan Chapman.

At Disney Hall, 135 N. Grand Avenue. Call 213-972-7282 or visit lamasterchorale.org
