Alexander Mikhailovich Raskatov

On the 11th of March 2013, in the La Scala foyer “Arturo Toscanini”, and on the occasion of the series Prima delle Prime, the opera A Dog’s Heart by Alexander Raskatov was presented. The speaker was Cesare Mazzonis, a great friend of Amici della Scala as well as artistic director of the Opera House. The opera presentation was an opportunity to explore further an essential period of 20th century Russian culture and history, but also to listen to Alexander Raskatov, who also responded to the audience’s questions. In the videos are two moments of the encounter. On the 19th of June 2014, an evening at the Amici della Scala took place (picture).
