Orchestra hires a maestro, maybe

Orchestra hires a maestro, maybe

The South Florida Symphony is ‘thrilled to announce the appointment of rising star, Maestro Stilian Kirov, as the Southwest Florida Symphony’s Interim Artistic Advisor and Principal Conductor for the upcoming 64th Season.’

Just interim? And just for the coming season? Like so many other music organisations, it sounds like Florida cannot make up its mind.

Chief Executive Officer, Amy Ginsburg, said, “There was immediate professional chemistry upon my first conversation with Maestro Kirov. His experience with regional orchestras, his artistic flexibility and open-mindedness, and his obvious passion for the work he does immediately informed us that he would be a great fit for this role.”
