New boss arrives at LA Phil. No-one notices

New boss arrives at LA Phil. No-one notices

Kim Noltemy started work yesterday as president and CEO of the troubled Los Angeles Philharmonic. She is the fourth to take the helm since Deborah Borda left in 2017 and the working atmosphere has darkened perceptibly amid accusations of bullying and incompetence.

As a measure of the prevalent discomfort, no public attention was drawn to Noltemy’s arrival. Many seem unaware she is  there. The website today still shows the name of her interim predecessor. It’s business as usual at the LA Phil: nothing happening here.
