With the European Concert the Berliner Philharmoniker celebrate the anniversary of their founding in 1882. Performed each year in another European city, this year's concert takes place in Naples. Together with charismatic conductor Riccardo Muti and Violeta Urmana, one of the leading sopranos in the Italian dramatic genre, they present the overture of Verdi's magnificent opera La forza del destino and La canzone dei ricordi by Giuseppe Martucci, who died in Naples. Schubert's "Great" C major Symphony completes this memorable concert at the awe-inspiring Teatro San Carlo.
