Ricardo Montalban Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)
The El Paso Youth Symphony (EPYSO) presents Flashback to the Summer of Love, a Beatles tribute at The Ricardo Montalban Theater. EPYSO has previously risen to the challenge of fusing their orchestra with music from movie soundtracks, the '70s and '80s and mariachis - now they will take on the classics created by the genius of John, Paul, George and Ringo.

The 1,000-seat theater is the latest remodeling of a historic Hollywood theatre (built by architects Myron Hunt and HC Chambers) dates back to the 1920s. Most recently known as the James A. Doolittle Theatre and previously the Huntington Hartford, it is co-owned by Nosotros and the foundation.
Flashback to the Summer of Love was imagined by EPYSO Music Director Maestro Phillip Gabriel Garcia because of his great admiration of the Beatles music and to commemorate the BEATLES 40th Anniversary. Maestro Garcia has encouraged his students to merge their symphonic skills with other genres of music, so the brilliance of the Beatles was the next logical step in the maturing of their musical talents. Fronting the orchestra in full Sergeant Peppers costume is the El Paso band Flashback whose musicians are also members of the EPYSO and whose front man Jose Rios is the current conducting apprentice of Maestro Garcia, and is also a collaborator for this event. Louie Yanez is a Las Vegas performer who be Sgt Pepper and will also sing many tunes with Flashback and the El Paso Progressive Orchestra Project-El Paso Pops.
