Witness the legendary sound of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, led by indomitable Music Director Emeritus Riccardo Muti. With more than 500 astonishing concerts with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under his belt, “Muti can still galvanize musicians as few others ever will. He has never been better” (The Times, London). Muti and the CSO have forged one of the most riveting classical music partnerships of our time. Their musicmaking is all plush power and shimmering finesse, performing with “a crackling energy and a sense of reveling … with crashing cymbals, all-out brasses and majestic strings” (The New York Times).

Treat yourself to an evening of “high drama and thrilling orchestral playing” (The New York Times) when the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and Riccardo Muti open the 2024-25 Knight Masterworks Classical Music season.
