Dudamel, then 28, could bring to LA not only youthful energy, but a hotline to the music of South America that would connect with California\u2019s Latin community.Fulfilling that promise, Dudamel has raised the profile of Latin American music on the international stage. Commissioned by the LA Phil, this album focuses on three works by Mexican composer Gabriela Ortiz that show off the orchestra and its music director, who were in London for concerts earlier this week.With its bold colours and lively rhythms Ortiz\u2019s music is proud of its Mexican roots, but there is also an inventiveness at work that goes further. The most original piece is the ballet Revoluci\u00f3n diamantina, which provides the album with its title. Given its premiere last year, the work imagines varied scenarios based around the theme of feminism. A mostly wordless women\u2019s chorus haunts the score and subtle orchestral writing creates an evocative atmosphere, except where Ortiz breaks into energetic passages too reminiscent of Stravinsky\u2019s The Rite of Spring.The recording leads off with Altar de Cuerda (\u201cstring altar\u201d), a violin concerto played with virtuosity by Spanish violinist Mar\u00eda Due\u00f1as, most memorable in its slow movement, where the violin soars over a mysterious, empty landscape. Kauyumari, a short orchestral depiction of the sacred Mexican blue deer, completes the programme. Typically vivid, Dudamel and the LA Phil are in their element throughout.\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2605\u2606\u2018Gabriela Ortiz: Revoluci\u00f3n diamantina\u2019 is released by Platoon<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
