Among the Hollywood Bowl conductors this summer is Roderick Cox, one for the future.

Others on debut are Ruth Reinhardt (a 2017/18 Dudamel Fellow), Gemma New (a 2014/15 Dudamel Fellow), Louis Langrée, and Elim Chan (a 2016/17 Dudamel Fellow).

Watch that very large space.

    75% women and 75% under 33.

    Does being a young woman help a conductor to be engaged for a debut with the LA Phil?

    I remember Roderick Cox from the Lanaudiere Festival a few years ago conducting a wonderful Rach 2. In 2018 he won the Sir Georg Solti Conductor award.

    He was one of the best in the Malko Competition. Saw him live later, that was underwhelming. But he has much potential!

    He was the winner of the Solti Conducting Award and worked with Osmo V. in Minnesota. He has a degee from Northwestern and has studied with Robert Spano, amongst others. He’s talented.

    A good appointment by the Dude. Give him some credit.

  • Miguel Cervantes says:

    San Francisco Opera is having him conduct Barber of Seville next season. SFO has unofficial diversity quotas so he is getting a big break based on that. Whether he proves to be the real thing is yet to be seen.

  • Herbert von Solti says:

    When he was serving as Associate in Minnesota, I felt he connected well audiences. But again. I’ve never rehearsed under him.
