A second Abbado orchestra returns from the dead
mainFollowing the Italian government intervention to save the European Union Youth Orchestra from death at the hands of the EU Commission, we learn today that the Orchestra Mozart, the last ensemble founded by Claudio Abbado, will reassemble in January after a three-year silence.
The orchestra was wound up a few days before Abbado died after a bank withdrew sponsorship.
Bernard Haitink will conduct the first concert of the revived band in Bologna on January 6.
