La historia que ha dado forma a nuestro sonido

In its original run from the 1920s to the 1950s, the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra worked primarily as a traditional ensemble, performing classical music under the baton of Leopold Stokowski, Felix Slatkin, Alfred Newman, and more, and releasing live albums on Capitol Records. Since returning to the stage under the baton of in 1991, the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra has demonstrated remarkable fluidity, working with conductors from around the world and performing a truly staggering range of music at consistently high quality.

In 2008, Thomas Wilkins began as Principal Guest Conductor, and starting in 2014, he became Principal Conductor of the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra, a title he holds to this day. Under his leadership, the orchestra has showcased its wide range of abilities, performing not only with stars of all kinds, but also live-scoring films and performing classical masterworks.  

Música de cine

Una de las especialidades de la Orquesta del Hollywood Bowl ha sido la interpretación en directo de música de cine, gran parte de la cual anteriormente solo se había podido escuchar en formato grabado en las bandas sonoras originales. Desde principios de la década de 1990, la Filarmónica de Los Ángeles / Hollywood Bowl se ha comprometido de manera excepcional con la recuperación e interpretación de bandas sonoras perdidas u olvidadas, muchas de las cuales han sido interpretadas posteriormente en concierto por la Orquesta del Hollywood Bowl: el tema de Max Steiner para «Lo que el viento se llevó», la secuencia del «Dream Ballet» de «Oklahoma!», la secuencia «Born in a Trunk» de «Ha nacido una estrella» (1954), además de docenas más.

Además, la Orquesta del Hollywood Bowl grabó su primera banda sonora cinematográfica, para la película de MGM*That’s Entertainment III*, en 1993.

Since 1997, the Bowl’s annual film concerts, in which the Orchestra plays the scores live in synch with film scenes or montages projected on the Bowl’s gigantic screen, have featured some of the biggest names in Hollywood. Major motion picture studios, including Walt Disney Studios, 20th Century Fox, Warner Bros., Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks Animation, MGM/United Artists, and Gracie Films / The Simpsons have worked with the LA Phil / Hollywood Bowl to produce one-of-a-kind, premiere concerts, with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra performing the scores. In addition, the LA Phil / Hollywood Bowl has partnered with other non-profit organizations, such as the American Film Institute and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, to produce concerts celebrating the art of music in film.
