Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra Presents Vivaldi & Schubert
2015-01-24 20:00 | Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale, CA, 91203, United States
Remember the exhilaration from the first paycheck you earned for doing something you love? At 19, Franz Schubert had composed an astonishingly large output of music but received no fee. Right before starting on his Fifth Symphony, he wrote in his diary, ‘Today, I composed for money for the first time.’ That may, in fact, be the reason for this Symphony’s sunny disposition!
Fast gaining recognition as one of America’s most promising conductors, Karina Canellakis gives us all something to smile about. She leads Vivaldi’s buoyant ‘Storm’ from the violin – it’s the fifth concerto from a set of 12 that includes the famous Four Seasons – and brings her trademark grace, versatility and intense conducting style to the Schubert, Pëteris Vasks’s short meditative Lonely Angel and John Adams’ Shaker Loops.
Program includes:
Karina Canellakis, conductor & violin
LACO debut
VIVALDI – Violin Concerto in E-flat major,
‘La Tempesta di mare’
(‘Storm’)
PËTERIS VASKS – Lonely Angel
JOHN ADAMS – Shaker Loops
SCHUBERT – Symphony No. 5 in B-flat major
Programs and artists subject to change.
7:00 PM – Pre-Concert Preludes – Ticket includes admission. Some Preludes feature LIVE performances of short chamber works. All provide interesting insights into the music and artists.
Every person, regardless of age, must have a ticket.

Artbeat Presents New Shanghai Circus - Acrobats of China
2015-01-23 20:00 - 23:00, 2015-01-23 20:00, 2015-01-23 14:00 - 17:00, 2015-01-23 14:00 | Alex Theatre, 216 N. Brand Blvd., Glendale, CA, 91203, United States
Astonishing athletes defy gravity and execute breathtaking feats as they stretch the limits of human ability in this spellbinding show. Fearless performers with boundless energy bring you more than two thousand years of Chinese circus traditions. If it’s humanly possible – and even if it’s not! – Shanghai’s acrobats, jugglers and contortionists do it with spectacular flair.
Each year New Shanghai Circus adds new performers direct from leading Chinese circus schools, creating a revolving line-up of award-winning favorites like Human Strength & Beauty, Plates Spinning, Jar Juggler, Diabolo, Magic Clock, Butterfly Lovers and Spinning Girls.
In 1999 New Shanghai Circus became the first Chinese acrobatic troupe to perform on Broadway and were named ‘Best Foreign Production on Broadway.’
Chinese acrobatic tradition dates back to 700 B.C.; that’s over 2,000 years of tumbling, balancing and juggling. Ancient stone carvings, earthen pottery and early written work trace the ancestry of today’s spectacular acts.
The art of Chinese acrobatics developed out of the Lunar New Year harvest celebrations, where the village’s peasants and craftsmen would hold a kind of Chinese Thanksgiving. Acrobats would use household tools and common items found around the farm and workshop as part of their exciting feats.
What the Press says about New Shanghai Circus:
‘The talents of the Shanghai acrobats are beyond compare…watch these acrobats and be stunned and thrilled.’ – The Kansas City Star
‘Show-stopping rarities of daunting difficulty’ – Los Angeles Times
‘Fantastic’ – CBS News
‘The show is a beautifully orchestrated presentation of Chinese circus acts dating back to harvest festivals of 2000 years ago. This modern day performance is enhanced by fabulous choreography, amazing lighting, enchanting scenery, and powerful music.
Audience members are enthralled by astounding contortionists, masterful acrobats, and clever comedians. They see feats of incredible skill and imagination. They gasp at many of the gravity-defying feats and applaud at the the super-human displays of power and extraordinary grace.’ – The New York Times
