On 2, 3 and 4 February there will be performances by the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia under Valery Gergiev at the major Italian concert complex Auditorium Parco della Musica (Rome). The programme includes music from the ballet Le Sacre du printemps by Igor Stravinsky, Rodion Shchedrin's Orchestral Concerto No 1 Naughty Limericks and Sergei Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No 3. Invited to perform the solo is the outstanding young South Korean pianist Seong-Jin Cho, prize-winner at the XIV International Tchaikovsky Competition and winner of the International Chopin Piano Competition in Warsaw (2015).
The collaboration between Valery Gergiev and the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia began more than twenty-five years ago.
On 6 February Gergiev will be conducting the Orchestra Filarmonica della Scala, with which the maestro also has long-standing ties dating back over thirteen years. The concert programme at the legendary Milan opera house includes Modest Musorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition (orchestrated by Maurice Ravel) and Pyotr Tchaikovsky's Piano Concerto No 1. The soloist will be the young pianist Alexander Malofeev, a prize-winner at international competitions for whom this marks his debut at La Scala.
