Classical Californians: Anna Handler

Classical CaliforniansPlaylist

This week on Classical Californian, German-Colombian conductor and pianist Anna Handler, the newly appointed Conductor-in-Residence of the Los Angeles Philharmonic, shares music that reflects her roots. Her selections pair the German folk-inspired beauty of Franz Schubert’s “Der Lindenbaum – Am Brunnen vor dem Tore” with the Colombian spirit and optimism of Nelson Ibarra’s “Esperanza,” highlighting the musical traditions and cultural influences that have shaped her life and artistic voice. Tune in Wednesday at 7PM!
