Riccardo Muti on performing Verdi's Requiem

Ahead of our concert on 27 March, we travelled to meet with Maestro Muti, former Principal Conductor of the Philharmonia, as he returns to London to conduct Verdi’s roof-raising Requiem. Only a handful of people have had the privilege of being Principal Conductor of the Philharmonia Orchestra. Muti was at the helm from 1972 to 1982, succeeding Otto Klemperer. He is acknowledged as one of the world’s leading interpreters of Verdi, and one of the great conductors of our time. As the Philharmonia prepares to celebrate its 80th anniversary, his much-anticipated return is one of the highlights of London’s musical calendar.
