## Quotes on Chiara Muti:

From Opera direction / Chiara Muti: «Music is in my DNA»|Interview by Angela Calvini, Avvenire.it, June 13, C.E.2013.
* On the staging of the opera Didos and Aeneas by Henry Purcell in C.E.2013 at the Bath of Caracalla My feminine side is revealed in having put scene Ascanius, the son of Aeneas whom Purcell does not insert. But for Virgil it is fundamental. queen of Carthage, who has decided to sacrifice her whole life to the memory of her dead husband, is deeply touched by seeing Aeneas tenderly caring for her son. And she is assailed by an immense desire to become a mother, to have a real family too.
* On the relationship with his father, the conductor Riccardo Muti No, there has never been a reason for rebellion for me. Everything I recorded always made both logical and moral sense. Since I was a child I learned to love art, feeling very privileged to be part of it. I learned a lot from my father, and from figures like him, attending all the musical rehearsals from an early age, seeing the emergence of a character, the change in the colors of the orchestra. My father is a man of very few words and the day he offered me to work with him, showing me his trust, was a promotion in the field for me.
* 'About Giorgio Strehler' Strehler was my great teacher when I studied at the Piccolo, he totally subjugated me. Already at the age of 8 I remember his monologues during the rehearsals of the Marriage of Figaro at La Scala, directed by my father. Even though I was very small, I wanted to stay there until the end, fascinated by the darkness of the theatre, its silences and its reflections. Experiencing all this as children leaves dream images, like Alice in Wonderland. But leaving the theater was a trauma for me. This made me solitary and I had difficulty adapting at the time. But now this is my world and my future.
