This week on SymphonyCast, with host Julie Amacher, composers Andrew Norman and Franco Donatoni challenge our sensibilities with experimental celebrations of imperfection. Meanwhile, J.S. Bach and Felix Mendelssohn rely on functional harmony and technique to guide us through an emotional expedition — all performed by one of America’s finest chamber ensembles, the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra.
