This fall, Julia Bullock joins the LA Philharmonic for their season-opening concert performing Samuel Barber’s mid-century American classic Knoxville: Summer of 1915. Knoxville. This nostalgic and evocative “lyric rhapsody” features rich and luscious textures set to text from a 1938 short prose work by James Agee. Julia will enjoy four performances, October 3-6, under the leadership of Music Director Gustavo Dudamel at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. The program also includes Gershwin’s Concerto in F, featuring pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, as well as works by Copland and Previn.
