This is and always has been my favorite Christmas Concert of the year. This years did not disappoint. The sounds were all great, the choreography so much fun and the excellence of the voices was superb. I love the blend of humor and really good vocal music. Hats off to all for the hard work that went into it that made it look so easy!!
We had a pleasant evening and enjoyed the show. Many Holiday favorites mixed in with some MoTown Standards....all seemed to work!
wonderful venue good presentation wonderful voices
wonderful song line up outstanding presentation exceptional voices
You know all the songs. You know all the words. You can't help but sing along and tap your feet. There was, like, 140 men singing at you, with you. The little skits during the 2nd half was a nice touch. Looking forward to the next one.
This was my first CMCLA concert. I totally enjoyed the Motown Christmas theme. It was entertaining and fun. A bonus was seeing Shanice singing I Love Your Smile. There were a few songs that were uneven, but that was easily overlooked. The Motown Guys were a nice touch, but not necessary. My only negative comment is that a few of the soloist need to be trained on how to use a microphone. I'm looking forward to attending their concert at Disney Hall in June 2023.
Great show! Musicality, fun, dancing, costumes and disco. GMCLA is always inspiring for their beautiful voices, but also for amazing work they do to stop bullying and engage communities through entertainment and acceptance. I will become a subscriber. The Saban is a great venue.
I have been attending the GMCLA concerts for over a decade. This was one of their best!
This was my 3rd GMCLA event and thoroughly enjoyed it. Lots of favorite songs ... memory lane.
The GMCLA always put on an amazing show. They are some of the very best talent: singers, dancers, etc.
First 4 were nothing that showed off the chorus. boring background to soloists? What were the dresses and the drag all about? Couldn't find any connection. Second half w/ overdone costumes. What was the connection to the rest of the numbers? Show not at all up to GMCLA standards. Choralography was ?????. Oh well, maybe the summer show will be back up to standards.
one of the best shows this amazing organization has ever put on. I would go see them anywhere, any time
Absolutely amazing event....loved the music and the powerful message, and the Disney Concert Hall .....WOW !
Wonderful! The concert exceeded my expectations. . .beautiful venue. . .outstanding singing from the LA Gay Men's Chorus. . .amazing "Harvey Milk" production. This was the best concert I have attended in years! It was so good for the soul. . .will sustain me for many weeks to come!
What an amazing combination of history and entertainment. The soloist were amazing and the performance by the "young" Harvey was breathtaking. The only negative is they only performed twice. :-)
This evening was a celebration of the Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles' 35 anniversary, and what a wonderful, entertaining and moving experience from start to finish! Beautiful voices and music, blended with the heartfelt emotion of celebrating just who and what created it, and why this organization exists. So glad we finally saw GMCLA live!
Great job everyone!! The orchestra was excellent.!
We loved the concert and the venue, although tickets were a bit pricey. It was beautifully staged, and as always, the GMCLA was wonderful. We were surprised, though, that the soprano that was chosen to sing with the chorus was so awful. Normally, your guest talent is far superior.
My first time at Disney Hall. Very impressive. I'm a big fan of GMCLA and expected a spectacular concert. We were very disappointed that the voices sounded "muddy" and we could not understand most of the lyrics in both halves of the concert, even the female soloist in second half. I wish they would print lyrics in the program and leave house lights up just a little so I could read lyrics and follow along. Would make it MUCH more enjoyable!
As if the magnificence of Disney Hall wasn't enough, they had 500 singers, an orchestra, 3 lead singers of uncanny ability and an oratorio that was powerfully moving. "I am Harvey Milk", composed and sung by Andrew Lippa, was an experience I will never forget. Lippa captured important events in Milk's life sung in musical styles relevant to the events and times in which they occurred. Andrew Lippa is a talent that is at the forefront of a new era of Broadway composers. Like Bernstein he is not limited to a single genre. His recent Broadway show "Big Fish" is one of the best shows I have ever seen. The Gay Men's Chorus of Los Angeles has had some behind the scenes turmoils in past seasons. This was their 35th anniversary performance. Hopefully it's brilliance is a sign that the backstage dust has settled and they will be in top form once again.
