Symphonic Subscription

The Symphony Subscription includes all the 7 concerts of the Teatro alla Scala Symphony Season, with our Orchestra and Chorus led by some of the most prestigious conductors of our time.

This year’s programs have a strong focus on the romantic repertoire.

In the opening concert, Simone Young conducts masterpieces by Brahms (Violin Concerto, soloist Sergej Krylov) and Richard Strauss (Ein Heldenleben). Next are two Mahler symphonies (the Sixth conducted by Lorenzo Viotti and the unfinished Tenth conducted by Daniele Gatti) and Bruckner’s Ninth Symphony conducted by Riccardo Chailly. Another symphonic poem by Strauss (Alpensinfonie) follows in May, alongside Schumann’s Piano concerto (soloist Vadym Kholodenko) with Susanna Mälkki on the podium. To conclude, the last two programs include the Chorus and vocal soloists: Tugan Sokhiev conducts Beethoven’s Missa Solemnis and Riccardo Chailly conducts  Schönberg’s A survivor from Warsaw, as well as Lieder by Mahler and Berg with Elīna Garanča and Christopher Maltman.
