He is wonderful. I hope to see more of Edward in the US in the coming years. We shared a Prokofiev 3 in Milwaukee nearly a dozen years ago and he was still quite young and very brilliant. He should have a US orchestra and probably will soon.
Soon, Andreas Orozco Estrada will have 3 European Orchestras plus the Houston Symphony but don’t mention Prokivfiev. It’s too new and avant garde for Houston
The venerated Bernard Haitink had the Concertgebouw and the LPO at the same time, and at a much younger age than Edward Gardner. Any complaints there?…
Two orchestras may not be a problem in itself, but the travelling can exacerbate it. London and Bergen are only a couple of hours flying time apart.
Paavo has Zurich, Bremen, and NHK… and a massive CO2-footprint!
But not as bad as Daniel Harding’s future impact.
I adore his conducting a lot!!! Tillykke Bergen!
Ed Gardner is absolutely excellent. These two wonderful orchestras are lucky to have such a terrific conductor. I just wished he did more opera!
Well…
