This is the ultimate concert hall. We love the architecture, the sound is amazing, and Dudamel and the LA Phil are tops. More

One of the remarquable buildings of LA: like a giant stainless-steel curving sculpture! The inside is less interesting. Nice location on the top of a hill. Not far from the MOCA. More

It's really worth a trip to this Gehry-designed classical music mecca, for the exterior as much as for the interior.

While the outside stainless steel construction is probably the most eye-catching part of the design, the more subtle design of the interior is equally interesting. While we weren't able to go inside the main concert hall, the smaller recital hall is beautiful with... More
