'''Carlo Maria Giulini''' ([[May 9]], [[1914]] – [[June 14]], [[2005]]) was an [[Italy|Italian]] [[conducting|conductor]].

Born in [[Barletta]], he studied the [[viola]] and conducting at the [[Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia]] in [[Rome]].

He worked at Milan Radio from [[1946]] to [[1951]], where he revived several obscure operas, including works by [[Alessandro Scarlatti]]. [[Arturo Toscanini]] heard a production of [[Haydn]]'s ''Il mondo della luna''; this led to him recommending Giulini for the musical directorship at [[La Scala]], where he remained from [[1953]] to [[1956]]. 

In [[1958]], he conducted a highly acclaimed production of [[Giuseppe Verdi|Verdi]]'s ''[[Don Carlos]]'' at the [[Royal Opera House]], [[Covent Garden]], but from [[1967]] he largely abandoned opera, concentrating on orchestral works. He conducted the [[Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra]], the [[Chicago Symphony Orchestra]] and the [[Philharmonia|Philharmonia Orchestra]]. From [[1978]] to [[1984]], he was principal conductor of the [[Los Angeles Philharmonic]]. In [[1982]] he returned to opera, conducting Verdi's ''[[Falstaff (opera)|Falstaff]]''.

His legendary recordings include Verdi (''Don Carlos''), [[Fauré]] (''Requiem''), [[Bruckner]] ([[Symphony No. 8 (Bruckner)|Symphony No. 8]] and [[Symphony No. 9 (Bruckner)|No. 9]]), [[Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky|Tchaikovsky]] ([[Symphony No. 6 (Tchaikovsky)|Symphony No. 6]]), [[Schubert]] ([[Symphony No. 8 (Schubert)|Symphony No. 8]] and [[Symphony No. 9 (Schubert)|No. 9]]), [[Gustav Mahler|Mahler]] ([[Symphony No. 1 (Mahler)|Symphony No. 1]],  [[Symphony No. 9 (Mahler)|No. 9]], and [[The Song of the Earth]]), and [[Antonin Dvorak|Dvorak]] ([[Symphony No. 7 (Dvorak)|Symphony No. 7]] and [[Symphony No. 9 (Dvorak)|No. 9]]) to name a few.

His [[1959]] recordings with the [[Philharmonia|Philharmonia Orchestra and Chorus]] of [[Mozart]]'s operas ''[[Le Nozze di Figaro]]'' and ''[[Don Giovanni]]'', as well as his [[1955]] recording of Verdi's ''[[La Traviata]]'' with [[Maria Callas]] are regarded as some of the finest opera performances on record.
