Witness a captivating symphony concert led by the Italian maestro Daniele Rustioni , uniting the Orchestra and Chorus of Teatro alla Scala for a dramatic evening of German Romanticism and French sonic vision! From September 22 to 25, 2026, this highly charged program will grace the stage of the legendary Teatro alla Scala Milan.
The first part of the evening is dedicated to the profound works of Johannes Brahms. The performance opens with the vibrant and triumphant Academic Festival Overture, Op. 80, a work brimming with spirit and humor. This is followed by the deeply moving Schicksalslied (Song of Destiny), Op. 54, which contrasts the transience of human happiness with the serenity of the gods – a piece of great emotional depth, highlighting the impressive performance of the Teatro alla Scala Chorus under the direction of Alberto Malazzi. After the intermission, the climax of the concert unfolds: Hector Berlioz’s Symphonie fantastique, Op. 14. This revolutionary work from the early 19th century is an intoxicating, autobiographical sonic journey depicting an artist’s obsession with his beloved – a symphonic narrative full of visionary effects, demonic dances, and hallucinatory scenes. Under Daniele Rustioni’s dynamic leadership, Berlioz’s sonic boldness will create an electrifying impact within the historic walls of La Scala Milan.
