In 2023 Myung-Whun Chung welcomed the appointment as Conductor Emeritus of the Filarmonica, after 35 years of intense artistic collaboration. "From the beginning, the meeting with Filarmonica della Scala was almost magical.

The choice not surprisingly falls on the Sixth, overshadowing the grandeur of other works for the more intimate dimension or, as the composer himself called it, "the most sincere."
