Sicklist: Dohnanyi’s out again
mainNo sooner did he conduct the Elektra revival at La Scala than Christoph von Dohnanyi, 89, pulled out of the second performance yesterday.
He was replaced at a few hours’ notice by Markus Stenz, who is presently rehearsing the Kurtag world premiere, Fin de partie.
The orchestra gave him a standing ovation, not a common occurrence at La Scala.
