Orchestral MITOlogy
MITO SettembreMusica 2024 is slated to open on September 6 with a performance of Ludwig van Beethoven’s Symphony No. 9, featuring the Teatro Regio di Torino Orchestra and Choir, four up-and-coming Italian soloists, and the bright young conductor Michele Spotti, in Torino’s piazza San Carlo.

Torino’s Auditorium Rai is the site for the much-anticipated return of Gianandrea Noseda, who’ll be conducting the Teatro Regio di Torino Philharmonic Orchestra on September 10, for a performance of George Walker’s Lyric for Strings, symphonic fragments from Alfredo Casella’s La donna serpente, which was one of Noseda’s greatest successes while he served as musical director at Torino’s Teatro Regio, and Beethoven’s Symphony No. 7. On the afternoons of September 13, in Milano, and September 14, at Torino’s Auditorium Giovanni Agnelli, Lingotto, ensembles from the Opéra de Lyon, conducted by Daniele Rustioni, perform Les Eaux Célestes by the young French composer Camille Pépin, along with Arnold Schönberg’s symphonic poem Pelléas und Mélisande Op. 5 based on the Maurice Maeterlinck play. Also on the afternoon of September 14 in Torino, the ensembles of the Opéra de Lyon, conducted by Daniele Rustioni, will be performing music from the Maurice Ravel ballet Daphnis et Chloé.
