Glendale – Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra – J.S. Bach: Six Brandenburg Concertos (BWV 1046-1051) – 9 December 2017 – Alex Theatre – United States

Mahan Esfahani joins the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, with whom he is is an artistic partner in the 2016-17 to 2018-19 seasons.

Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra performs the complete cycle of Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos led from the first chair by esteemed LACO concertmaster Margaret Batjer and featuring special guest Mahan Esfahani on harpsichord in his Orchestral Series debut. The Brandenburg Concertos remain evergreen and present an opportunity to showcase the immense talents of many of LACO’s virtuoso principals, notably newly appointed principal flute Joachim Becerra Thomsen and newly appointed principal oboe Claire Brazeau. This LACO-signature repertoire has been previously performed by the Orchestra an astonishing 52 times, more often than any other work in its repertoire.
