Players and scribblers are slow to arrive at the music director announcement, but photographers are out in force.
Petrenko is a shy man, unused to the hack pack. Let’s hope they don’t scare him off.

Nothing yet from the live feed at the Digital Concert Hall…
Berliner Philharmoniker web site is simultaneously announcing Petrenko as next music director along with the webcast.
Correction…Chief Conductor.
It is Kirill Petrenko.
Oh, well….still can’t see anything on the live feed.
Do I get a prize for announcing the result at 11.06am?

Great, thanks!
The press wouldn’t have scared him off, anyway. He’s been in Bayreuth all day.
And rehearsing Walküre tonight
