The MSO is thrilled to announce that German-based Australian violinist Natalie Chee will join the MSO as our next Concertmaster, commencing January 2026.
Natalie has been Concertmaster of the Gürzenich Orchestra in Cologne since 2019 and was previously 1st Concertmaster of Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra and Camerata Salzburg. Originally from Sydney, she is a regular guest Concertmaster of orchestras throughout Europe including the BBC Symphony Orchestra, which she led in the ‘Last Night of the Proms’ in 2014.
MSO Chief Conductor and Artistic Advisor Jaime Martin said: “Natalie is a fabulous musician and a fantastic colleague who has earned the admiration and respect from orchestras around the world. Ever since she first worked with the MSO I felt a very strong musical connection; now I look forward to sharing this collaboration with our audience in Melbourne, Australia and abroad.”
