Riccardo Muti is an Italian conductor best known for being the Music Director of Milan’s La Scala opera house from 1986 to 2005, and of the Philadelphia Orchestra from 1980 to 1992.

In 1967, he won the Cantelli Prize for young conductors. From 1968 to 1980 he was Principal Director and Music Director of the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino. From 1980 to 1992, Muti was Music Director of the Philadelphia Orchestra.

Muti stated that his approach was to remain faithful to the intent of the composer. This meant a change from applying the lush “Philadelphia Sound”, created by his predecessors Eugene Ormandy and Leopold Stokowski, to all repertoire. His sonic changes to the orchestra remain controversial.
