The city of Lyon has extended music director Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider by three more years.
They say:
“I have big plans for the orchestra and I think we’re heading in the right direction, but it takes time for an ensemble and its music director to find their own voice. I know we’ll get there with steady work and commitment on both my part and that of the musicians.”
Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider, Music Director of the Orchestre national de Lyon
“I’m thrilled to see Nikolaj Szeps-Znaider renewed at the head of the Orchestre national de Lyon. It will enable us to further strengthen our artistic and human bond and together develop very ambitious musical projects. I hope the journey will continue and that he’ll lead us as far as possible!”
Giovanni Radivo, Concertmaster, Orchestre national de Lyon
