Palisades Fire: We feel great sorrow for those who lost everything in the fire, including several of our members.
"Recognizing the power of
music to comfort and heal," (the words of our Music Director
Maxim Kuzin), we will be continuing rehearsals and
performances.
Our main venue, Palisades
Lutheran Church, miraculously survived the fire that
surrounded it. It is being used for relief efforts and may
need some repair, so we anticipate performing in a
replacement venue for a while.
Next concert: Grieg
piano concerto and other works, Sunday February
9, 7:30 p.m.
The Palisades Symphony is a community orchestra that performs and rehearses in the Pacific Palisades district of Los Angeles. The orchestra is led by Music Director Maxim Kuzin. The Symphony was founded in 1966 by Joel B. Lish in order "to foster, promote and increase the musical knowledge and appreciation of the public; to provide qualified musicians with a venue to perform; and to afford contemporary composers an opportunity to have their works performed and heard."
The Palisades Symphony gives seven concerts a year, including two with the Brentwood Palisades Chorale, a summer concert version opera, and a Young Artists showcase concert which recognizes the talents of local students.
Rehearsals are Tuesday evenings, usually at Palisades Lutheran Church.
The Palisades Symphony is made possible by the support of its generous contributors. All concerts are free of charge, and the public is cordially invited to attend.
