Giovanni Antonini biography

The Italian recorder player and conductor Giovanni Antonini (born 1965) studied flute and recorder in his native town Milan, attending the Civica Scuola di Musica and the Centre de Musique Ancienne in Geneva. Sir Simon Rattle invited Giovanni Antonini to conduct the Berliner Philharmoniker in January 2004 in works from the Classical and Baroque periods: the Berliner Zeitung defined his interpretation as "simply ingenious". His return to both the Berliner Philharmoniker and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie in Bremen last season (2007-2008) received great praise. Engagements this season (2008-2009) include an iGA tour of Europe with Magdalena Kožená, a tour with the Camerata Academica Salzburg and concerts with the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin and the Münchner Kammerorchester. Future engagements include concerts with the Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, Tonhalle Orchester Zürich and the Spanish National Orchestra.

  • What's interesting in Gdansk?

    Gdansk is considered to be one of the most interesting Polish cities, but many tourists exclude it from its program, preferring Krakow, Wroclaw and Warsaw. During its long history, Gdansk has absorbed many different traits: medieval churches are replaced by a typical Soviet building, and all this is piquantly complemented by the sea breeze. Discover and love this harsh but extraordinarily beautiful city.
