Milan is full of secrets. Sure, the marble facade of the Duomo is amazing (especially when you see it after walking through the gorgeous Vittorio Emanuele II Gallery), but have you heard of the San Maurizio al Monastero Maggiore church? With its paintings and mosaics inside, some say it’s basically Milan’s version of the Sistine Chapel. Similarly, Leonardo da Vinci’s Last Supper dazzles visitors to the Basilica of Sant’Ambrogio, but art lovers will be amazed by the paintings of Raphael and Piero della Francesca at the Pinacoteca di Brera. After all these mystical emotions, take a stroll through the pleasant Navigli district, where much of Milan’s cultural and nightlife is concentrated.
La Scala Theatre offers us two great pillars of the repertoire. On the one hand, Faust, one of the most famous French operas in the world, makes its return to Milan in a magnificent production by Johannes Erath. Gounod’s hero will be played by one of the best French singers of his generation, Julien Dran. On the other, Verdi’s fiery Requiem will be performed by a legendary musical team: Riccardo Chailly conducting, and Anna Netrebko, Elῑna Garanča, Fabio Sartori and Michele Pertusi as soloists. Breathtaking!
