Disney Philharmonic Hall Feb 20, 2013

In October 2003, the doors to one of the world’s most celebrated venues – the Frank Gehry-designed Walt Disney Concert Hall – were opened and the Los Angeles Philharmonic took the stage in its new home, which has become known not only as a local cultural landmark, but also as “…a sensational place to hear music... In richness of sound, it has few rivals on the international scene, and in terms of visual drama it may have no rival at all.” (The New Yorker)

It was a cool evening so they
had covered the Grille for warmth.
I was outside for the photo.
Cynthia is inside.
We split an apple dessert!

You definitely need an aerial view
to get the whole picture!
The Pipe Organ was designed and built by
Rosales Organ Builders and architect Frank Gehry.
It has 6,125 pipes from the size of a pencil to
as large as a telephone pole.
