Founder, conductor and long-time Malibu resident Gary S. Greene led the Los Angeles Lawyers Philharmonic and its chorus, Legal Voices, in its seventh annual Concert Extraordinaire on Saturday, June 18 at the Walt Disney Concert Hall. 

The Philharmonic has been dubbed “LA’s Only Legal Orchestra & Chorus” because it is entirely made up of lawyers and judges. The performance featured Sherman Brother’s Disney music by the American composers Bernstein, Copland and Ferde Grofé. Songs from Mary Poppins, Tom Sawyer, and The Jungle Book highlighted the evening. 

The nonprofit organization raises money for those who cannot afford legal services. After performing more than 40 concerts, Los Angeles Lawyers Philharmonic continues to generate new music and have a positive impact in the community.
