Orchestra guru takes music-free job
mainPeter Pastreich, 77, has been named interim executive director of American Conservatory Theater.
Peter was successively executive director of the Nashville Symphony (1962-66), St Louis Symphony (1966-78), San Francisco Symphony (1978-1999) and Philharmonia Baroque (2009-11).
He’s considered one of America’s best mentors to music administrators.
Now, he’s taking a break from musicians.
Let’s hope it’s a permanent break. For Pasterich’s sake. The “industry” is rotten to the core, most notably in the USA.
What ‘industry’ is ‘rotten to the core’ and what exactly is meant by that ?
