The Dresden Philharmonic has announced it is opening an academy for young orchestral players in the name of Kurt Masur.

Two local banks are backing the project, to which Tomoko Masur has given her patronage.

Lovely idea, totally appropriate. And Dresden got in first, ahead of Leipzig where Masur spent much more of his conducting years.
