New boss in Orlando
OrchestrasThe Orlando Philharmonic in Florida has named Karina Bharne as its executive director.
She has served 15 years as executive director with Symphony Tacoma in Washington state and the San Antonio Symphony in Texas.
Her Israeli husband plays in the Vancouver Symphony.
We certainly wish her well but her LinkedIn profile indicates 5 years as ED in Tacoma and 5 years in San Antonio, where she was not the ED but rather personnel manager (3 years) and VP/General Manager (2 years.)
I’m awaiting the day when someone’s gender isn’t the leadin to a story.
Vancouver to Orlando? That’s what I call a “commuter marriage.”
