The planned concert led to a violent reaction, the central Italian government criticized it, Russian disputes and Ukrainian associations.
In Italy, Russian conductor concert Valery Gergiev was canceled, which should take place on July 27 in the courtyard of the Vanvitelly Palace Complex at the Caser as part of the festival Un’estate da re. The Italian agency reported it on Monday, July 21.
The decision was made by the supervision of the royal palace due to a public reaction caused by Gergiev’s proximity to Russian leader Vladimir Putin. According to ANSA, Italian authorities are afraid of the protests of Ukrainian organizations on the eve of the event.
At the same time, president of the campaign region Vincenzo de Luc, who started the concert, criticized cancellation, saying that blocking cultural contacts was “only furious.”
Gergiev clearly supports Putin and the war against Ukraine. In 2014, he signed a letter in support of Crimea’s union and, after a full -scale raid in 2022, refused to judge Russia’s actions, which due to which he was removed from the Munich Philharmonic Orchestra
Earlier, Milan Theater La Scala called Valeria Gergiev to take an accurate position against the Russian Federation invasion of Ukraine. In addition, Rotterdam Philharmonic, Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, BIS Records, Metro-surgery, Carnegie-Hall and Vienna Philharmonic refused it.
