Bio

Carlo Maria Giulini (1914–2005) was an Italian conductor renowned for his refined, deeply expressive interpretations of the classical and romantic repertoire. Born in Barletta, he studied at the Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome and began his career as a violist before turning to conducting after World War II. Giulini held principal posts with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Vienna Symphony, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and he was a frequent guest at La Scala, Covent Garden, and the Philharmonia Orchestra. His recordings for EMI and DG—especially of Mozart, Bruckner, and Verdi—remain benchmarks for their clarity, warmth, and spiritual depth.
