Emmanuelle Haïm live in Los Angeles

Experience Emmanuelle Haïm live on December 15th

Emmanuelle Haïm, a leading figure in historically informed performance of Baroque and Classical music, will perform at Walt Disney Concert Hall in Los Angeles on December 15, 2026. Haïm is renowned for her work with the ensemble Le Concert d’Astrée, which she founded in 2009. Her interpretations are characterized by a lightness and clarity often achieved through meticulous research into original performance practices, focusing on ornamentation, phrasing, and instrumental color prevalent during the 17th and 18th centuries. She frequently performs works by composers such as Rameau, Handel, and Vivaldi.

Walt Disney Concert Hall, designed by Frank Gehry and completed in 2003, is the home of the Los Angeles Philharmonic and the Los Angeles Master Chorale. Its architectural design is notable for its sweeping stainless steel exterior panels and its vineyard-style seating arrangement which places the audience closer to the performers. The hall's acoustics were a significant focus during its design phase; acoustician Yasuhisa Toyota consulted extensively to achieve optimal sound quality. It quickly became recognized as a landmark building and one of the most acoustically praised concert halls in the world.
