LA Phil replaces chair with violinist’s husband

LA Phil replaces chair with violinist’s husband

The board of the Los Angeles Philharmonic has elected Jason Subotky in place of Thomas L. Beckmen as its chair from the beginning of October. Beckmen has presided over several management departures in his five-year term and the ship has only just begun to stabilise under new CEO Kim Noltemy.

Subotky, a wealthy asset manager, is a trained musician. He is married to the concert violinist Anne Akiko Meyers.
