In this photo taken Monday, Dec. 16, 2013, Italian conductor Riccardo Chailly attends at a press conference in Milan, Italy. Giuseppe Verdi’s rarely staged early masterpiece “Giovanna d’Arco” (‘’Joan of Arc’’), which opens the La Scala season on Monday, seems to have particular present-day resonance, recounting the story of the French patron saint who was inspired by God to fight for her country, coming to a premature death. But the opera house’s principal conductor, Riccardo Chailly, said in an interview that the production doesn't try to make a political statement, but is rather an intimate story about a fraught father-daughter relationship.
