Today at 12:30 pm in the Ridotto dei Palchi "A. Toscanini" of Teatro alla Scala the press conference was held for the presentation of Concerto per Milano, a free and open-air event that Filarmonica della Scala dedicates to its city, now in its tenth edition in 2022. The speakers were the Mayor of Milan Giuseppe Sala, the Conductor Principal of Filarmonica della Scala Riccardo Chailly, the Managing Director of UniCredit Andrea Orcel, Managing Director of Allianz S.p.A. Giacomo Campora, the Chief Marketing & Customer Officer Esselunga S.p.A. Roberto Selva, the President of Filarmonica della Scala Maurizio Beretta and the Conductor Artistic Director of Filarmonica della Scala Etienne Reymond.

OnSunday 12 June 2022 at 9.30 p.m., Filarmonica della Scala and Conductor principal Riccardo Chailly return to perform in Piazza Duomo for the evocative Concerto per Milano. The event, realised with Main Partner UniCredit and Sponsor Allianz, the support of Esselunga and the Patronage of the Municipality of Milan, marks this year its tenth edition and returns to the calendar, as per tradition, at the beginning of summer.

To celebrate this anniversary, Riccardo Chailly and the musicians of La Scala have devised a programme of great vitality and energy, starting with a foray into the atmospheres of Spanish music, with theInterlude and Dance from Manuel de Falla's opera La vida breve and the Rapsodie espagnole op. 54 by Maurice Ravel to a tribute to George Gershwin, with the famous and evocative notes of his symphonic poem An American in Paris and the Catfish Row suite from Porgy and Bess . Opening the concert will be the world premiere of Decisamente allegro, the new piece commissioned from composer Nicola Campogrande on the occasion of the orchestra's 40th anniversary.
