Boston Globe music critic quits

Boston Globe music critic quits

Message from Jeremy Eichler:

… After 18 years at the Boston Globe, I am moving on from my position and joining the faculty of Tufts University, where I’ll be taking up a newly created professorship in music history and public humanities, beginning this fall.

I will really miss working with many wonderful Globe colleagues. I’m also very excited for a new home base where I will be able to bring my experience into the classroom, continue with my public-facing writing (including a new book project about which I hope to share more soon), and embark on a new set of collaborations including a position next season as the first Writer-in-Residence of the London Philharmonic Orchestra….
Will he be replaced?
