Photo Flash: Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra Pavon "Conducts" LA Chamber Orchestra

By:

Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra, which welcomes its new Music Director Jaime Martín next month, invited just-announced LA Galaxy player and World Cup veteran Cristian Pavon - aka the soccer "Conductor" - to step in and lead the renowned ensemble in Beethoven's 7th for the team's promo video revealing his signing.

Pavon and LACO players Margaret Batjer, Jacqueline Brand, Susan Rishik, Rafi Rishik, Carol Castillo, Armen Ksajikian, Claire Brazeau, Damian Montano, Dylan Hart and Erick Jovel took the stage - er, field - at the Galaxy's stadium Monday night, and a good time was had by all.
