UK conductor, 27, makes Toronto Symphony debut
mainThe highly-rated Kerem Hasan is flying out to Toronto to replace Louis Langrée at ths week’s concerts.
He will conduct Debussy’s Prélude à l’après-midi d’un faune; Szymanowski’s 1st Violin Concerto with Christian Tetzlaff; and Beethoven’s Eroica symphony.
A protégé of Bernard Haitink, Kerem has already conducted the Concertgebouw, the St Petersburg Symphony and the LSO.
As usual, it’s all about the hair…..
Perhaps…but he also happens to have a face to go with it…
He is here now conducting us this week, really enjoyable and I would say definitely one to watch. And proving once again that great hair and great conductors do often seem to come together 🙂
