The Package
Music trip to Milan for 3 days / 2 nights with exclusive program. The highlight is a visit to the famous Teatro alla Scala on the second evening to experience a magnificent performance in a world-famous environment with global stars.
The opera in three acts Un Ballo in Maschera by Giuseppe Verdi will be conducted by world-famous Indian conductor Zubin Mehta (83). The opera is based on a true story. It is the masked ball on which 1792 King Gustav the third of Sweden was shot. Itpremiered 1859 and was modified many times in the following years due to political reasons. It has now returned to its original state.
The full orchestra and chorus will be there as well. The lyrics of the opera are displayed in original language (Italian) and in English. The performance takes 3 hours, intermission included. With your premium tickets, you can access the Toscanini Foyer to enjoy a Spumante in the intermission and to see and be seen.
The 3 day city trip includes the hotel in your selected category, a gourmet dinner on the evening of the first day, a private walking tour of the city with a guide in your language, a visit to the La Scala Museum, premium tickets for the selected event at the Teatro alla Scala, and an aperitif before the performance. The schedule and program have been well accepted by our clients and we receive many compliments. However, should you wish to adjust the program, to maybe have a different private sightseeing tour or rather spend the day shopping, add an excursion to Lago di Como, an excursion to Cremona to the Stradivari Museum, then please let us know. The itinerary can be customized to your needs.
