The Kimmel Center’s spring fundraiser on May 19 will feature three different events, to run simultaneously, at 7:30pm.

In Verizon Hall, Gustavo Dudamel will lead the Los Angeles Philharmonic through a classical performance of composer John Adams’ City Noir and Tchaikovsky’s Pathétique. In the Perelman Theater, jazz and R&B chanteuse Lizz Wright will perform her own standards and ballads. In the Innovation Studio, New York-based theatrical power trio GrooveLily will perform a montage of works on violin, piano and drums.

The concerts will raise money for arts education initiatives at the Kimmel Center.
