  6. Learning to love Gustav Mahler

    One evening in 1966, not long after the Los Angeles Philharmonic moved into the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, concertgoers were surprised to find a picket line in front of the hall on opening night.

The protest received radio coverage, and it had the effect of launching the local Gustav Mahler Society.
