On Thursday 21st May 2026, the Pala de André will host the opening concert of the Ravenna Festival featuring ANNE-SOPHIE MUTTER, conducted by VASILY PETRENKO and accompanied by the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra.
Fifty years on from her prodigious debut in 1976, Anne-Sophie Mutter returns to celebrate an extraordinary artistic journey, which began under the visionary guidance of Herbert von Karajan.
In dialogue with this, Gustav Mahler’s Fifth Symphony: an intense and personal work that traverses shadow and light, from the solemn opening to the famous Adagietto, right through to a luminous and liberating finale.
