Maestro move: Utah goes Posch

Maestro move: Utah goes Posch

The Utah Symphony has announced Markus Poschner as its next music director.

Poschner, 53, is presently chief of the Bruckner Orchestra Linz (to 2027) and Orchestra della Svizzera italiana (to 2025). He becomes chief conductor in Basel a year from now.

His official takeover date in Utah is 2027, but he’ll have a battle on his hands to stop developers knocking down Abravanel Symphony Hall and replacing it with a sports stadium.
