Since the Academy likes to spread the musical landscape as far and wide as we possibly can, it felt right to have one of the most fascinating outfits in Italian musical history sit down with us as part of the 2004 Red Bull Music Academy in Rome. 

Founded in 1908, the Santa Cecilia Orchestra (or The Orchestra dell’Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia, to be precise) was the first orchestra in the whole of Italy to devote itself to symphonic repertoire; giving the first performances of some of the most important works of the 20th century, and conducted by legendary figures such as Mahler, Strauss, Sibelius, Stravinskij and Toscanini. In their lecture we learned about the continued life of these talented figures.
