About the conductor Riccardo Muti

Riccardo Muti

Riccardo Muti was born in 1941 in Naples. In 1967 he won the Cantelli Prize for young conductors and, from 1968 to 1980, he was Principal Director and Music Director of the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino.

Muti first conducted the Philharmonia Orchestra in London in 1972 and was appointed the orchestra's principal conductor, eventually succeeding Otto Klemperer. Muti held this post until 1982.

In 1980 Muti succeeded Eugene Ormandy as Music Director of the Philadelphia Orchestra which, during the 12 years of his tenure, he took on numerous international tours. In 1987, Muti was appointed principal conductor of the Scala Philharmonic Orchestra with which ensemble he received the Viotti d'Oro in 1988 and with which he went on tour in Italy and in Europe. In 1991 he announced his resignation from the Philadelphia Orchestra at the end of that season. He was succeeded by Wolfgang Sawallisch. He is now best known for having been the Music Director of Milan's La Scala opera house from 1986 to 2005.

Riccardo Muti was awarded the Doctor Honoris Causa degree by the Universitat de Barcelona on 13 October 2003.
