Festival Opening: Mozart's Final Symphonies

The official inauguration of the 75th Granada International Festival of Music and Dance features a monumental performance of Mozart’s final three symphonies. Conducted by the legendary Zubin Mehta, the Orchestra del Maggio Musicale Fiorentino will perform Symphonies No. 39, 40, and 41 in the stunning circular courtyard of the Palace of Charles V. This event marks a significant milestone for the festival, which is one of Europe's oldest and most prestigious. The setting offers exceptional acoustics and a majestic historical backdrop, providing a world-class classical music experience that celebrates the enduring legacy of Mozart and the festival's own three-quarter-century history as a beacon of high culture in southern Spain.
