/// MISSION BRIEFING

From the RAI “Arturo Toscanini” Auditorium in Turin, the RAI National Symphony Orchestra pays tribute to Igor Stravinsky, on the fiftieth anniversary of his death, with *Pulcinella* conducted by Ottavio Dantone, one of the foremost interpreters of early music, a harpsichordist and conductor, and a leading expert and scholar of Baroque performance practice. The vocal parts are performed by mezzo-soprano Paola Gardina, the young Australian tenor Alasdair Kent, and bass-baritone Paolo Bordogna. The evening concludes with Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s famous Symphony No. 41 in C major, K. 551, known as “Jupiter.”
