Dorothy Chandler Pavilion - 5th Floor Hall 

Concertmaster Bing Wang and Concert Pianist Joanne Pearce Martin of the L.A. Philharmonic along with celebrated Actor/Cellist Dermot Mulroney will be performing downtown at the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion - 5th Floor Hall.  They have invited student musicians from Dorris Place and Castelar Elementary Schools to play on the same stage!  Proceeds from the concert, organized by Education Through Music–Los Angeles, will go directly towards the music programs at both schools.  What an incredible opportunity for the students!  Show your support for saving music in public education and these fantastic Los Angeles neighborhood kids by attending this concert at the Dorothy Chandler Pavillion - 5th Floor Hall.
