The Los Angeles Philharmonic's third and final LA Phil LIVE concert of the season features Music Director Gustavo Dudamel and the LA Phil with jazz legend Herbie Hancock for a celebration of quintessential American composer George Gershwin on Sunday, March 18, at 2 pm local time.

LA Phil LIVE: Gustavo Dudamel and Herbie Hancock Celebrate Gershwin, pre-recorded from the LA Phil's 2011/12 season Opening Night Concert at Walt Disney Concert Hall, includes some of the composer's best-loved works including the Cuban Overture, An American in Paris, and Rhapsody in Blue, as well as intimate solo improvisations by Hancock on Embraceable You and Someone to Watch Over Me. The event also features exclusive footage of Hancock – the LA Phil's Creative Chair for Jazz – in his home, playing Gershwin and providing insights into his improvisational process. 

LA Phil LIVE is produced as a collaboration between the LA Phil and NCM Fathom, a division of National CineMedia (NCM).
