Anne Akiko Meyers, Gustavo Dudamel, LA Phil ~ Fandango by Arturo Márquez on Platoon

In 2018, after hearing Danzon No. 2, music that made my heart and soul dance, my dream for a mariachi-inspired violin concerto was reignited.
Soon after, I approached the great Arturo Márquez, and he shared with me that his late father was a mariachi violinist and he was waiting to write this music that stirred in his heart for decades.
Fandango was soon born when I gave the world premiere at the Hollywood Bowl in 2021, with the Los Angeles Philharmonic, Gustavo Dudamel conducting (and dancing).
The joyful, soulful music has thrilled audiences from Mexico City to Carnegie Hall and this live recording from concerts at Disney Hall in October 2022, will undoubtedly touch your heart and have you fall in love with his music, much like I did....

I've had the privilege of seeing Anne Akiko Meyers several times as I live in Los Angeles. There is simply no other classical violinist like Anne. Fandango simply allows her brilliance to shine

I just heard this for the first time on Tidal. Akiko Meyers has a new fan. Amazing performance.

What a wonderful video of a wonderful occasion. Congratulations to all involved and heartfelt thanks that you posted it from this old man in England who would so love to see Ms Anne Akiko Meyers perform.

I'm not musically inclined, so when I hear wonderful pieces such as this performed by equally wonderful artists, I'm in absolute awe. I thank every one of you for giving me the gift & the joy of music.

Saw her / this in Detroit when I think her tour was starting out. The applause was pretty unrestrained and long. I think when you can’t find words to describe how moving a piece of/ performance is, then it’s real.

I think you should wear a gold watch when you play violin 😊❤

That was a tough part going that fast with the pinky and 3rd finger, I know that took a lot of practice
