The 2026/27 Season opens with a programme that brings together introspection and orchestral brilliance under the baton of Marko Letonja, one of the conductors most admired by Milanese audiences. Composed in the aftermath of the First World War, Elgar's Cello Concerto is a work of profound lyricism. In the hands of Daniel Müller-Schott, the cello becomes the ideal voice for its emotional depth and expressive nuance. With Respighi, intimate reflection gives way to dazzling orchestral colour. Fountains of Rome and Pines of Rome paint an ever-changing sonic portrait of the Eternal City, where shimmering light, flowing water and kaleidoscopic orchestral textures create an unforgettable musical landscape.
