An excerpt from the news release on the coming tour! Watch this space for links to photo galleries: From October 20 to November 2, 2014, the CSO will undertake its fifth tour to Europe with Music Director Riccardo Muti. This is the 32nd European tour and the 58th international tour in the Orchestra’s history. The Fall 2014 tour includes the Orchestra’s debut in Poland with a concert in Warsaw, a concert in Luxembourg, a debut in Geneva, two concerts in Paris and a week-long residency in Vienna with four performances at the Musikverein, two of which are of Verdi’s Requiem. Also in Vienna, Muti and journalist Peter Jarolin of the Kurier will hold a public conversation, followed by a CD and book signing with Muti. Repertoire for the tour includes works by Scriabin and Verdi, two composers who are closely associated with Riccardo Muti. Considered to be one of the greatest living interpreters of Verdi’s work, Muti is also a longtime champion of Scriabin, an often overlooked composer. Muti and the CSO will also perform works by Debussy, Mendelssohn, Panufnik, Schumann, Stravinsky and Tchaikovsky. (For background on the composers and the repertoire, go to bit.ly/REPfallTour14cso.)
