Orchestra Verdi di Milano

Musical Group

An Italian symphony orchestra based in Milan, named after Giuseppe Verdi and commonly known as La Verdi.

From the provided review: the orchestra presented a Shostakovich programme at the Gustav Mahler Auditorium on 22/09/2006, conducted by Vladimir Jurowski with violinist Boris Garlitsky as soloist. The review mentions Riccardo Chailly as honorary director and Rudolf Bashai as emeritus director and describes the orchestra as recently founded in that context. Repertoire noted includes 20th-century composers and works by Shostakovich.

A detailed, positive review of a Verdi di Milano concert (22/09/2006) dedicated to Dmitri Shostakovich. The review praises the orchestra, conductor Vladimir Jurowski, and soloist Boris Garlitsky, highlighting the suite "Hypothetically Murdered", the Second Violin Concerto and Symphony No.6. The concert took place at the Gustav Mahler Auditorium and was well received.

For:Classical music listeners, orchestra concertgoers, Shostakovich fans, followers of Italian orchestras

 A very enjoyable and entertaining score, as I mentioned, which recalls not only the music of Gershwin but perhaps even more that of Bernstein, and particularly the exceptional “West Side Story,” especially for the percussion and tones that incredibly easily shifted from clownish to light, culminating in more demanding melodies.
