En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Nabucco: Gli arredi festivi

Venus pour une soirée qui compilait divers extraits d'opéras de Verdi, l'orchestre et le chœur de la Scala et leur directeur musical, Riccardo Chailly, ont proposé un beau concert bien que peu théâtral.

For the final week of the CSO season, Muti led a stirring program of operatic excerpts by Verdi, Puccini and Mascagni, along with a rarity by Boito.

As I made my way to the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées, a mass of photographers and guests dressed in their evening best waited eagerly by the front doors. Alas, this reception was not for me, but rather for the Prince and Princess of Belgium, the evening’s guests and the very reason behind the concert.
