he Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra – with music director Yannick Nézet-Séguin – is one of Europe’s top orchestras. Every year the orchestra gives over 100 concerts, ranging from appearances in Rotterdam to major foreign tours, for audiences totalling more than 150,000. The orchestra’s ambition is to bring symphonic music to as broad a public as possible. In addition, the orchestra focuses on adventurous and innovative projects. The orchestra is based at ‘De Doelen’ in Rotterdam.For our orchestra we are looking for talented, flexible and committed musicians who work with joy in a changing environment.

    Changing environment is right. Rotterdam and Concertgebouw among others need to keep the international community aware of their financial position and needs. Maybe it’s even worth a couple more articles in New York and London newspapers.

    Norman: I found your headline initially disturbing because YNS also heads the Philadelphia Orchestra. Their long-time principal flute and clarinet – among the finest in the world – would indeed be a major loss.
