Bass player, 36, is new Philharmonic manager
mainWord just in: the Antwerp Philharmonic has turned to Joost Maegerman to be its new intendant.
Joost has been a member of the Rotterdam Philharmonic double-basses for the past few years, and chairman of the orchestra’s musicians board. He comes from Antwerp and still lives there.
Rotterdam colleagues consider him a brilliant all-rounder. Yannick will be sorry to lose him.
