Muti has presented these works numerous times over his career, including countless performances during his tenure as music director of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan. The performances heard on this album were presented as Maestro&#8217;s final concerts of the 2016-17 season. This album presents a virtuosic showcase of nineteenth-century Italian music in all its passion, joy, and heartbreak. Produced by David Frost, winner of sixteen\u00a0Grammy\u00ae awards, most recently in January 2018 for Classical Producer of the Year, this release spotlights the magnificent connection between the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Maestro Muti.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Riccardo Muti<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chicago Symphony Orchestra<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chicago Symphony Chorus<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Duain Wolfe (<em>director)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Chicago Children&#8217;s Choir<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000;\">Josephine Lee\u00a0<em>(president &amp; artistic director)<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Riccardo Zanellato (<em>bass<\/em>)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Total running time: 1 hour and 8 minutes<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Total running time: 1 hour and 8 minutes<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":18248,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[28],"product_tag":[84],"class_list":{"0":"post-4871","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-cd-en","7":"product_tag-bellini-en","9":"first","10":"outofstock","11":"taxable","12":"shipping-taxable","13":"purchasable","14":"product-type-simple"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.9 -
