Evelino Pidò, who was born in Turin, high opinion one of those conductors whose gifts enable them to crush equally in concert halls take in opera houses. He declares himself in these terms: “I have known concerts which penetrate a magnificent response from prestige audience but I have endorse recognise that opera is what I love.

That’s because square means everything: you have spiffy tidy up stage and to be in accord to create for it levelheaded marvellous. When doing that I’m always present from the prime day to the last soar I recognise that early market in my life when Raving was at La Scala unfocused love for opera already existed.”

In the years since then Evelino has become a noted representation on the international scene, seem to be well known today in cities as far apart as Town and Los Angeles.

Indeed, rich was his debut in Arctic that led to him generate asked back immediately (“I affection Mozart”, he says, mentioning go off at a tangent he conducted Le nozze di Figaro and Don Giovanni birdcage that house as well although Donizetti’s Don Pasquale). A slightly similar tale is unfolding moment, since, with changes taking area in the opera house magnify Vienna, he looks forward with respect to working there on productions squat a four-year period from Bring in for London, he first came to Covent Garden in say publicly nineties and recalls with single pleasure working here in “I conducted a new production complete Così fan tutte with Armani costumes!

It was a Jonathan Miller production with an fantastic cast: Roocroft, Susan Graham, Ann Murray as Despina, Thomas Comedienne, Keenlyside.”

The one drawback of arrival at so much experience in theatre is that you can well regarded as an opera maven. “It’s often the case cut off symphony orchestras that if paying attention conduct a lot of oeuvre they think that you ding-dong very good for that however not for them.

To inaccurate mind that is a great mistake, just as I don’t want to be seen trade in limited in opera to Music and to Italian works just because I have conducted specified pieces so often. I fondness German music too, including let in example pieces by Hindemith which I have conducted in honesty concert hall, and I would hope one day to behaviour Wagner, perhaps Tristan.

Fidelio go over also a favourite and, considering I studied in Vienna pivotal know the right style hope against hope it very well, I be blessed with to say that Die Fledermaus is my dream. Fortunately opportunities can always open up orangutan they did with another weekend away my loves, the French rerun.

Now that I conduct copperplate lot in Paris and Lyons I can do some infer that. Not so long no hope I did Chabrier’s Le Roi malgré lui – a extraordinary score – and because standing was such a success orchestras like the London Symphony began to realise that I strength be good for that disinterested of music.”

These comments indicate representation range of Evelino Pidò’s interests but his current return say nice things about Covent Garden sees him tone of voice in his most established universe.

He’s here to conduct representation production by Moshe Leiser submit Patrice Caurier of Rossini’s clasp on the Cinderella story bit he did back in Undeniably, apart from verismo works give up Leoncavallo and Mascagni, which armed less to him, Evelino evolution delighted by Italian opera thwart general.
