The Los Angeles Philharmonic Association presents “Rock My Soul,” a festival celebrating both historical and present-day collaboration and community formed by Black woman-identifying artists, curated by soprano Julia Bullock and featuring performances by Chaka Khan, Rhiannon Giddens, J’Nai Bridges and Meshell Ndegeocello from Oct. 30- Nov. 22. Inspired by the friendship between composers Florence Price and Margaret Bonds, whose mutual support helped them break down barriers to have their music heard in the classical music world of the early 20th century, “Rock My Soul” shines a light on the power of creative community.
“‘Rock My Soul’ focuses on the connection, collaboration and mutual support shared between artists, and celebrates voices who incorporate a vast scope of influences and inspirations in their work,” Bullock said. The events will take place at the Walt Disney Concert Hall, located at 11 S. Grand Avenue, as well as the REDCAT: Roy and Edna Disney/CalArts Theater, located at 631 W. Second St, and The Ford, located at 2580 Cahuenga Blvd. For information, visit laphil.com/rockmysoul.com
