The 2025 Season

The first to take the podium will be the principal conductor Riccardo Chailly, with Gustav Mahler's Seventh Symphony.
As usual, the Filarmonica della Scala will also be involved in the Teatro alla Scala Symphony Season, which will be inaugurated by Simone Young and will include conductors such as Riccardo Chailly, Daniele Gatti, Susanna Mälkki and Lorenzo Viotti. With more than 700 concerts abroad, the Filarmonica confirms its presence in the most prestigious concert halls also for 2025.
The projects aimed at supporting communities in which we operate
UniCredit will continue to support Filarmonica della Scala in a series of projects and activities aimed at improving the quality of life in the communities in which we operate.
The 2025 Season will include charitable and educational initiatives, including "Prove Aperte", which allow the public to attend the dress rehearsals of concerts, while contributing to philanthropic causes, and "Sound, Music!", which will continue to spread the passion for music among young people, bringing them closer to the art of music and stimulating their creativity and talent.
UniCredit also invests in the training of young musicians through scholarships, offering them the opportunity to develop their skills and keep Italian musical excellence alive. New is the UniCredit Award, an additional financial recognition worth €1,000 that UniCredit will pay to the youngest musician admitted to the final test scheduled for 4 December 2024.
Finally, the Filarmonica della Scala will continue to enchant the public with the traditional "Concerto per Milano", taking place every year in Piazza Duomo.
