If he is really unwell, why is he conducting «Madama Butterfly» at La Scala the day after tomorrow?
Well, It’s Riccardo Chailly who conducts…not replaced.
It’s really upsetting when artists use health reasons which are evidently untrue.
Chailly 01/06 has canceled Berlin’s concerts (01/12-14-15) because of illness, but 01/08 has regularly conducted 3h05m of Puccini in Milan.
