Liverpool loses a second manager

Liverpool loses a second manager

First Jurgen Klopp, now Michael Eakin.

The chief executive said today he will retire next year after 16 years as CEO of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. Michael has been a beacon of stability in orchestral management. Arriving from a desk job at Arts Council England, he was totally involved with musicians and audiences from day one. After a happy decade with Vasily Petrenko as chief conductor, he supervised a smooth transition to Domingo Hindoyan, all the while working on a major hall refurbishment and long term future plans.

Dedication of this order will be hard to replace.
