The Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra team up with the renowned Ballet Folklorico De Mexico de Amelia Hernandez for a joyful celebration of Mexican folk culture and history! The vibrancy of the region's folklore rivals that of any civilisation and, through seven wonderful pieces, the ensemble and orchestra take audiences on a journey through it, replete with stunning costumes and beautiful choreography.

Seen by millions of dance fans worldwide, Ballet Folklorico de Mexico has traveled to more than 60 countries and regularly garners rave reviews with every new show they produce.
