Parma - January 18, 2012
At exactly 3:30 P.M. on the 18th of January, Maestro Riccardo Muti will be at Parma to visit the exhibition, dedicated to Renata Tebaldi and set up in the halls of the Governor’s Palace. With his presence the illustrious Maestro celebrates an artist with whom he shared reciprocal feelings of admiration and friendship.
The visit of the Maestro is also a valid reason for which Parma, universally recognized as the symbol of Italian melodrama and the city where Renata Tebaldi took her first steps towards an incredible career, should dedicate to its famous daughter a stable, imperishable reminder and demonstrate, in this distracted country which is Italy, that there are examples of responsible remembering.
To the authorities and to the press, Maestro Muti will confirm his commitment to act so that Culture, of which Music is an integral part, has the proper importance in the civil activity of a Nation which defines itself as civil.
