Ettore Stratta

Italian Conductor and Arranger

Ettore Stratta (1933–2015) was an Italian conductor, arranger, and record producer known for his versatility and breadth of repertoire. He had a significant career in both classical and popular music, often bridging the two genres in his projects. Stratta worked with a variety of orchestras and was particularly noted for his contributions to crossover music, which blends classical with other styles. He conducted and arranged music for numerous recordings, television specials, and concerts, collaborating with a wide range of artists from different musical backgrounds. While he was involved in many projects throughout his career, it is not clear from the information available whether he specifically produced an album titled "Porgy And Bess - In Concert." However, given his extensive work with operatic and theatrical material, it would not be surprising if he had engaged with such a project during his career.
