NEW series on RAI 5: Rehearsals and Concert

Starting from this week, every Thursday evening RAI5 will broadcast a new series of Muti’s rehearsals which – for the next three weeks – will bring us behind the scenes of his concert (scheduled on November 19th). Re-runs are scheduled each Saturday morning and Sunday afternoon.

Bassoonist David McGill – one of the main virtuosos of this instrument and for almost 20 years first bassoon of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra – joins Orchestra Cherubini from the second episode of this journey.

Information is updated weekly according to RAI schedule.
