Maestro move: Ireland appoints Spanish chief
mainJaime Martín has just been named Principal Conductor of the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra.
He is also about to become music director of the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra and is is charge of the Santander Festival back home.
Since 2013 he has been Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of Gävle Symphony Orchestra in Sweden, a job he intends to continue.
Jaime, whose Irish contract is for three years, is a former principal flute of two London orchestras.
Why does he have a baton in his hand, when there’s not an orchestra in sight ?
So that you know his profession (conductor)
That’s what the photographers want from you when being a conductor.
Superb player and a top bloke – good luck to him!!
Wonderful musician, lovely man, had the pleasure of working with him when I ran the London Mozart Players and he was principal flute, congratulations to Jaime
