Gustavo Dudamel launches the LA Phil season with a high-voltage program, beginning with a new percussion concerto by Pulitzer winner David Lang (Bang on a Can), performed by S? Percussion. Then, an evocative trumpet fanfare initiates Mahler's Fifth Symphony, whose huge musical canvas includes an achingly beautiful love song to his wife, Alma.

Lang: man made (U.S. premiere, LA Phil co-commission)
