See you at La Scala!

Getting tickets for La Scala theatre is often a frustrating quest, both for the Milanese and tourists. Yet today, Easter Friday, may be your lucky day, and this evening you may be sitting in your box seat of one of the most famous theatres in the world.
Strange as it may seem, there are some tickets still available for the charity concert of tonight: the Symphonic Orchestra Giuseppe Verdi (nicknamed "la Verdi") will perform J.S. Bach's St Matthew Passion (BWV 244) conducted by Ruben Jais.
The soloists are Makoto Sakurada (Evangelist), Karina Gauvin (soprano), Stefanie Iranyi (mezzo-soprano), Cyrill Auvity (tenor), Christian Senn (baritone), Klaus Kuttler (baritone), Daniele Caputo (baritone), Cristiano Contadin (bass-viol).
Symphonic Choir "G. Verdi" (choir master Erina Gambarini) and Children's Choir "La Verdi" (choir master Maria Teresa Tramontin).

Tickets are available at Ricordi Media Store, in Galleria Vittorio Emanuele. Prices range from 40 to 60 euros. Unsold tickets (if there will be any) will be on sale from 6.30 pm at La Scala ticket office, in via Filodrammatici.
Have a wonderful evening!
