Milan-Parma, back and forth. The bond that unites the Lombard capital to the Emilian city is deep. Giuseppe Verdi, born in Roncole di Busseto, in the province of Parma, is closely linked to Milan, the city where he lives and works. Arturo Toscanini, born in the Oltretorrente district of Parma and Principal Conductor of the Orchestra of the Teatro alla Scala in Milan from 1921 until 1929. Romano Gandolfi, legendary choir conductor born in Medesano in the province of Parma and founder of the Coro Sinfonico di Milano. The list is long, and it will not stop thickening. For the moment we celebrate this Milan-Parma axis with an irresistible co-production that brings a conductor with a legendary aura to the stages of the Milan Auditorium and the Arturo Toscanini Music Production Center at the Parco della Musica in Parma: Christoph Eschenbach, between Bruckner's Fourth Symphony and Beethoven's Fifth Piano Concerto, alongside a young keyboard talent launched into a brilliant career, Tom Borrow.
