Orchestre de la Suisse Romande appoints Conductors in Residence
After the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande was unable to find a successor to its previous chief conductor Jonathan Nott, it is now presenting two conductors in residence.
The Italian conductor Daniele Gatti will take on the role for three years from the 2026/27 season, while the Australian conductor Simone Young will take on the role in parallel from the 2027/28 season. The title entails four weeks of presence per season.
The Orchestre de la Suisse Romande (OSR) was founded in 1918 by Ernest Ansermet. It is administered as a foundation and is mainly funded by the Canton and City of Geneva, is associated with Radio Télévision Suisse and functions as the opera orchestra at the Grand Théâtre de Genève.
