NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra / Jonathan Bloxham

• Classical Music

Semyon Bychkov very much regrets having to withdraw from the concerts due to a planned hip operation. Jonathan Bloxham, whose concerts in September 2023 with works by Britten and Mendelssohn may still be remembered by NDR subscribers to the G and H series, will take over as conductor instead. The Briton, currently Music Director of Lucerne Theatre and Chief Conductor of the Northwest German Philharmonic Orchestra, was mentored by none other than Paavo Järvi, has conducted orchestras such as the London Symphony and BBC Symphony Orchestra and is a regular guest of the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen. Before embarking on his conducting career, he enjoyed success as a cellist with the Busch Trio. The programme remains unchanged. Subscribers and ticket purchasers will be informed of the change by email.
