![]() ![]() Dudamel's 1999 appointment as music director of the Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar allowed him to conduct regular concerts and make concert tours abroad.ĭudamel has arguably been the most sought-after conductor under the age of 30 and is the first in a long time to be appointed music director of a major orchestra - in this case, the Los Angeles Philharmonic beginning in 2009-2010. In 1995 he began conducting studies with Rodolfo Saglimbeni, but the most important teaching influence was conductor José Antonio Abreu, who served as young Gustavo's mentor. Later on at the Jacinto Lara Conservatory, he studied violin with José Luis Jiménez and at the Latin American Violin Academy with José Francisco del Castillo. Gustavo began lessons on the violin at 10, having previously studied in a government-sponsored music program in grade school. His father was a trombone player who performed in local bands. He was born on January 26, 1981, in Barquisimeto, Venezuela. For a musician who only began studying conducting in 1995 and made his professional debut in 2005, he has ascended the steep ladder to podium renown in almost unprecedented fashion.

The guys concurrently hooked up with Seattle-based Rocketstar Recordings, and following graduation, their full-length debut, Our Worlds Divorce, was released in late 2004. Comprised of vocalist/guitarist Dan Young, guitarist Gavin Phillips, bassist/vocalist Phil Cobrea, and drummer Ryan Tapert, the group began gathering a decent local following while still in high school, playing in the same regional scene that spawned peers Gatsbys American Dream and Forgive Durden.
