At Coachella 2025, the Los Angeles Philharmonic made a historic debut under conductor Gustavo Dudamel, presenting a genre-defying set that fused classical and contemporary sounds. Among the standout moments was Zedd joining the orchestra on piano for a stunning orchestral rendition of his hit "Clarity."
Festival-goers raved about the emotionally powerful synergy between electronic beats and sweeping orchestration, describing the performance as an unforgettable highlight of the weekend. Both the live crowd and online viewers were moved by the intense atmosphere and impeccable sound quality, cementing this collaboration as a defining moment of the festival.
This wasn’t Zedd’s first orchestral milestone—he marked the 10th anniversary of "Clarity" in 2022 with a special live show backed by a 50-piece orchestra at Los Angeles’ Dolby Theatre.
