The new appointment is Matthew Quinn from Belfast, a former assistant content producer at the BBC.
How the chorus job will now work with the company split between London and Manchester remains to be specified.
Matthew says:
Delighted to be able to finally announce that I’ll be joining @englishnationalopera from this season as their new Chorus Director!
To take this position with a National company that I admire so much with such an internationally renowned chorus is a dream. As is to be part of such an inspiring and innovative musical team. We kick off at the Coliseum in September with La Bohème!
