Los Angeles Philharmonic - History

The Los Angeles Philharmonic was founded in 1919 by multi-millionaire William Andrews Clark, Jr. A part time musician himself, Clark Jr. was looking to establish the city of Los Angeles first permanent symphony orchestra. He gathered some of the best musicians from symphonies on the east coast as well as local musicians from the short lived Los Angeles Symphony. The Los Angeles Philharmonic was born on October 13, 1919 when the 94 musicians that comprised the philharmonic met for their first rehearsal. It took only eleven days for the Los Angeles Philharmonic to make it debut in Los Angeles in front of 2,400 spectators.

Now nearly 90 years later, the Los Angeles Philharmonic is still going strong. According to the Los Angeles Philharmonic website, the classical orchestra sees over one million spectators come through the turnstiles each year. The orchestra plays at Los Angeles' Walt Disney Concert Hall for 30 week engagement each year that spans from October through June. The Los Angeles Philharmonic then moves into the Hollywood Bowl during the summer months for 'Music Under the Stars'.
