Opera North has made it known that David Greed, only leader of the Orchestra of Opera North since its inception in 1978, will step down after Wagner’s Parsifal this summer.

He was the youngest concertmaster in the country when appointed and ON claims he is now the longest-serving Orchestra Leader in Europe.

Can that be true?
