Riccardo Chailly dirige Prokofiev y Chaikovski — Con la Filarmonica della Scala

It would be hard to find a more picturesque backdrop for a classical music festival than Granada, Spain, where every year since 1952 the Festival de Granada has attracted a panoply of stars to the world-famous home of countless medieval masterpieces. In this marquee concert from the festival's 2023 edition, Riccardo Chailly leads the renowned Filarmonica della Scala in two symphonic masterworks by Prokofiev and Tchaikovsky at the Palace of Charles V, inside the Alhambra!

In or out of the pit, La Scala's storied house ensemble is a concert orchestra on par with the world's best—and they are led here by the able hand of maestro Chailly in his Festival de Granada debut inside one of the gems of Renaissance architecture. They take on the final symphonies by two Russian greats: Prokofiev's Seventh, imbued with bittersweet nostalgia; and Tchaikovsky's Sixth (the "Pathétique"), premiered just six days before the composer's death, an enduring monument to the extraordinary emotional depths he was capable of expressing in music.
