Malibu resident Gary S. Greene, Esq. conducted the Los Angeles Lawyers Philharmonic and the 100-member Legal Voices at its Concert Extraordinaire at the Walt Disney Concert Hall July 30.
The event featured music from Gershwin’s “Porgy and Bess” to the finale of Beethoven’s Ninth Symphony. A portion of the ticket proceeds from the sold-out event went to those who cannot afford legal services.
