The young musicians of the Simon Bolivar Youth Orchestra along with luminary conductor Gustavo Dudamel invite you to a unique and consummate performance from the newly opened Concert Hall in Caracas, Venezuela, Dudamel's home country. Despite his young age, Dudamel has become a force to be reckoned with in the classical world. His wild, fervent stylings draw crowds of thousands. Here, Dudamel and the youth orchestra's repertoire flows from the stirring Joropo across Venezuelan waltzes to the Merengue, creating a musical tapestry that is varied and vital.
