Time, please: Welsh National Opera chief retires
NewsWelsh National Opera’s General Director Aidan Lang has decided to retire at the end of 2023, after just four years in the job.
Having started his career at Glyndebourne and in Wales, he went on to head New Zealand Opera from 2006-2014 and Seattle Opera from 2014m to 2019.
His short period in charge has been marred by Covid shutdown and drastic cuts to WNO’s touring programme by Arts Council England.
He has picked a good time to withdraw.
