CHICAGO – Riccardo Muti leads the Chicago Symphony Orchestra (CSO) on a six-city, eight-concert U.S. tour (January 14–24, 2025) that marks their first domestic tour together since January 2023. Muti, the Orchestra’s distinguished 10th music director from 2010 until 2023, became Music Director Emeritus for Life at the beginning of the 2023/24 Season. Muti is in Chicago through November 9 for CSO subscription concerts that include the world premiere performances of the CSO-commissioned Megalopolis Suite, by Osvaldo Golijov, a former CSO Mead Composer-in-Residence from 2006 to 2010. Created from the score for the 2024 Francis Ford Coppola film Megalopolis, the new suite will also be performed in concerts that open and close the U.S. tour on January 14 in Naples, Florida and January 24 in Stillwater, Oklahoma.
