La Scala expects white smoke today

La Scala expects white smoke today

The name of the next music director will be announced in the course of today.

Daniele Gatti has been the favoured candidate of the Mayor of Milan and of the company’s Sovrintendente Fortunato Ortombina.

However, the Meloni government is signalling its support for a different candidate – the Korean, Myung Whun Chung.

All will soon be resolved.
