Viva Verdi! The La Scala Concert (DVD)
If there is one opera house in the world synonymous with the music of Verdi it is the Teatro alla Scala, Milan. This concert from the sumptuous auditorium of La Scala was given in celebration of the 200th anniversary of Verdi s birth and comprises some of his best-known overtures alongside rarer repertoire from the operas.
The Filarmonica della Scala have this music in their blood and under Chailly deliver performances of scintillating precision and panache.
