Traditions: Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater at Alex Theatre

WHAT ENDURES ACROSS TIME AND SPACE? Join us for a series of timeless works that spotlight singular voices within the collective music-making experience. Revisit memories and create new ones together with LACO and guest artists John Holiday and Amanda Forsythe.  

Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra Music Director Jaime Martín conducts three enduring works on this timeless Easter weekend Orchestral program, which commemorates the centenary of Sir Neville Marriner, who served as LACO’s first music director from 1969 to 1978. Paired on Stabat Mater, Pergolesi’s transcendent meditation on redemption, are guest artists soprano Amanda Forsythe, who possesses “a springwater-pure voice” (Classical Voice North America), and genre-defying countertenor John Holiday, a finalist on Season 19 of NBC’sThe Voice. The Suite from Bach’s unparalleled Easter Oratorio opens the concert, which closes with Mozart’s iconic Symphony No. 40 in G minor.  Pergolesi’s Stabat Mater is made possible, in part, with the generous support from Cheryl K. Petersen + Roger H. Lustberg.
