Lissner troubles Meloni: “I’ll stay at San Carlo. Violence against me because I’m French”

“At the?”. Stephane Lissner responds to the Sheet. He’s relaxed, doesn’t seem worried. “I’ll hold on, you’ll see. Indeed, I thank those who are showing solidarity with me in these hours: merci, thank you very much “. On Thursday, the government of Giorgia Meloni with a contra personam rule caused the superintendent to leave San Carlo. The French theater director, already number one at La Scala in Milan and at the Paris Opéra, is seventy years old. And the codicil approved by the CDM on the governance of lyric-symphonic foundations provides for “the prohibition of receiving assignments, offices and collaborations for those who have completed their seventieth year of age”. One way to equate the retirement age of Italian superintendents to foreign ones, but above all it is the slide to push Carlo Fuortes away from Viale Mazzini towards San Carlo. Voila? Not exactly.
