Riccardo Muti conducts the Chicago Symphony Orchestra for the first time in more than 30 years in one of the most keenly anticipated concerts of the season at London's Royal Festival Hall. The programme, with a mixture of the well-known and less familiar, is the perfect vehicle both for the great virtuosity, versatility and expressive style of one of America's great orchestras and Muti's intense conviction and exacting standards. Tchaikovsky: Symphony No 6 (Pathetique) Hindemith: Nobilissima Visione Scriabin: The Poem of Ecstasy, Op 54 Chicago Symphony Orchestra Riccardo Muti (conductor).
