Carlo Rizzi

Regularly invited by the New York Metropolitan Opera and London's Covent Garden, Carlo Rizzi began his career in Milan, where he served as assistant conductor at La Scala. Famous for the perceptiveness and integrity of his musicality as much as for the psychological depth of his interpretations, Carlos Rizzi has conducted about a hundred operas by Bellini, Donizetti, Cimarosa, etc. Beyond the Italian repertoire, he has notably recorded Gounod's Faust and Janáček's Kátia Kabanová.
