Artistic Director's Wish for Amadeus' Return and Potential Substitutes for the Festival

"As the artistic director of the festival, I would like to see Amadeus again next year, even though I know he probably won't be back. However, he has reached such an autonomy that makes him capable of thinking about something that can evolve, while anyone else would be a slave to the system". This is said by maestro Peppe Vessicchio on Rai Radio1, guest of Un Giorno da Pecora, interviewed by Giorgio Lauro and Enzo Iacchetti. However, Amadeus will not return. "It's hard to think of a substitute for him. Perhaps there could be a young man like Stefano De Martino or a more experienced one like Paolo Bonolis, who is in another company...".
