Fondatore e direttore de “I Solisti Veneti”, Scimone ha diretto molte delle orchestre più prestigiose a livello internazionale. Tra i numerosi premi ricevuti, ricordiamo il Grammy di Los Angeles, il Grand Prix du Disque dell’Academie Charles Cros di Parigi e l’Elisabeth Memorial Medal di Londra.

The Maestro Scimone, but with a few incisive words, thanked everyone for the award, pointing out that returning to lead in our Church after 50 years (April 1961): sign, that of a particular good will of St. Nicholas to him! But the most intense moment of the evening was the concert he conducted with impeccable and precise movement, disguised as a playful and serene lightness: the elements of who knows what the composer asks the performer, suggesting but not requiring, the solution better. The orchestra, including this writer who has been part as a violinist, was completely bewitched by the clarity of musical ideas and the fascinating and versatile artistic personality Scimone.

Great performer he was the violinist Michael Lentini, who has made the right sweetness of sound, combined with a convincing phrasing, even in more complex technical passages, always resolved with remarkable skill: a very difficult job, taking into account the hands frozen by suffered great cold in the Basilica! The musician gave the audience an encore, the Sarabande from the Second Partita for solo violin by Bach. The concert ended with the Symphony in C major No. 60 "The Distracted" by Haydn, in which the director, Maestro Scimone, entertained the audience with her "Distractions" to consummate actor.
