US orchestra loses both maestro and manager
OrchestrasThings just got exciting in San Francisco.
Hours after executive director Courtney Beck was out the door of the Philharmonia Baroque, it was the turn of Richard Egarr to quit as music director.
Here’s what Courtney’s saying:
Dear artist friends and colleagues,
After 16 years at Philharmonia, and 8 as executive director, I wanted to let you know that I am leaving the organization at the end of May.
I’ve had the privilege of working with each of you in different ways, and I am confident that we’ll cross paths again. News about my next chapter is coming very soon.
With my warmest to each of you,
Courtney Beck
