He has worked as a guest conductor with renowned orchestras such as the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, BBC Philharmonic and the Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin. He has assisted Bernhard Haitink with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and the Vienna Philharmonic.<\/p>\n<p>The Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra was founded in 1984 by a group of musicians and music enthusiasts from the region between the Arlberg and the Rhine. Its members are 120 professional musicians from Vorarlberg and the neighboring regions. Each season, it performs a cycle of six concerts in Bregenz and Feldkirch, plus a major opera production at the Vorarlberg State Theatre, concerts and scenic projects at the international Bregenz Festival in summer, at the Montforter Zwischent\u00f6ne festival, other guest performances and CD productions.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><strong>The Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra (SOV), based in Bregenz, has a new chief conductor in the form of Brit Leo McFall.
