    And he’s an excellent fit for Zurich.

  • Permanentplacefan says:

    What kind of job would be so perfect to him that he would not change place all the time? I would never hire a (principal) player who leave orchestra to another orchestra all the time. Hopely he will be happy + will stay rest of his life/career in Zurich!

  • WU says:

    Obviously he is already gone – he vanished from the roster and the position is advertised!
