Conducted by the world-renowned Maestro Zubin Mehta, with the participation of Soprano Silvia Capra, the orchestra will enchant the audience in the iconic setting of the Mosaic Garden of Villa d’Este.

Born in Bombay in 1936, Zubin Mehta won the International Conducting Competition in Liverpool in 1958 and has since conducted many of the world’s leading orchestras. He has served as Music Director of the Montreal, Los Angeles, and New York Philharmonic Orchestras and has received numerous accolades throughout his career. Deeply committed to nurturing young talents, he actively supports the Mehli Mehta Music Foundation in Bombay and the Buchmann-Mehta School of Music in Tel Aviv.

This exclusive event, set against the legendary Mosaic, will feature a repertoire of Mozart’s most iconic works, including the Symphony from The Marriage of Figaro and Symphony No. 40 in G minor, K. 550, alongside exquisite compositions by A. Mati. The evening will be further enhanced by the extraordinary floral artistry of designer Vincenzo Dascanio.

The event will begin with an aperitif on the Platani Terrace, followed by the concert and a gala dinner on the terrace overlooking Lake Como, where guests will be transported by sublime classical music and refined gastronomy. The gala dinner will feature a menu specially created by our Executive Chef and will be accompanied by a dedicated pamphlet celebrating the career of Maestro Zubin Mehta, placed on each table.
