Julian Rachlin becomes chief conductor
NewsThe Vilna-born, Vienna-based violinist has been named Chief Conductor of Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra in Norway.
The orchestra comprises 71 full-time musicians from 17 nations.
Julian, 47, says: ‘I’m honoured and deeply moved by the trust the orchestra has placed in me following my five seasons as their Principal Guest Conductor.’
Like many violinists in their forties, he has swapped the grind of daily bowing for the cut and thrust of baton work.
