From the June 4th to July 11tho the summer festival dedicated to the Maestro returns to Parma: 4 symphonic concerts, as many chamber concerts, a round table and a Community concert which will be held in different places in the city of Parma. An opportunity to delve deeper into listening to the great conductor’s favorite authors and at the same time to those who lived in the same era as him, looking with a special eye at the period between the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century.
