The long-awaited resumption of live concerts at the iconic Walt Disney Concert Hall follows a 19-month closure due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The trailblazing, multi-year Pan-American Music Initiative (PAMI), curated this season by composer Gabriela Ortiz, is part of a season that includes the premieres of two dozen works commissioned by the LA Phil.
