Product description

Georges Prêtre - The Last Concert At La Scala is a captivating classical album that showcases the renowned conductor's final performance at the iconic La Scala in Milan. Recorded live on 22 February 2016, this album is a testament to Prêtre's mastery of the genre, featuring a carefully curated selection of operatic and classical pieces.

The album begins with Beethoven's Egmont - Complete Incidental Music, Op. 84: Overture, followed by Verdi's La forza del destino: Overture (Sinfonia), and Offenbach's Les contes d'Hoffmann: Barcarolle (Orchestral version). The programme also includes Ravel's mesmerising Boléro, M.81, and a lively rendition of Offenbach's Orphée aux enfers: Can-can.

Released on 21 February 2020 by Universal Music Division Decca Records France, this 44-minute album is a must-listen for fans of opera and classical music. With Georges Prêtre at the helm, the orchestra delivers a powerful and emotive performance, making this album a fitting tribute to the conductor's legacy. Georges Prêtre - The Last Concert At La Scala is a poignant reminder of the magic that can be created when exceptional music, talented musicians, and a legendary conductor come together.
