La Scala chief lands Swiss job

La Scala chief lands Swiss job

The French Sovrintendente of Teatro alla Scala, ousted by a xenophobic new law, has signed on for his next position.

Dominique Meyer, 69, is required to give up in Milan on turning 70 next year.

He has accepted the much lower key position as executive director of the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne, starting tomorrow.

The orchestra’s artistic director is the French violinist Renaud Capuçon.
