Career Trajectory
Daniele Gatti's ascent from Milan conservatory student to international maestro reflects a commitment to the deepest traditions of European conducting. His 1988 debut at La Scala established him as a serious musician, but his 2008 invitation to Bayreuth—where he would conduct *Parsifal* across four consecutive seasons—announced his arrival among the world's elite interpreters of Wagner and the symphonic repertoire. Now a regular at the Metropolitan Opera, Opéra de Paris, and the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Gatti commands respect for readings that balance scholarly precision with profound emotional communication.
Career Highlight
Bayreuth Festival debut conducting Stefan Herheim's production of Parsifal (2008), one of the rare invitations extended to an Italian conductor to this most exclusive of opera festivals
