Solti cellist retires

Solti cellist retires

From the Chicago Symphony:

The CSOA family congratulates CSO cello Loren Brown on his retirement. Brown joined the Orchestra under Music Director Sir Georg Solti in 1985. Across his CSO tenure, he was a soloist in the Orchestra’s first performances of David Ott’s Concerto for Two Cellos, performed in several chamber ensembles and participated in over 40 tours. “I find it remarkable that there is such synergy across more than 100 musicians who come together to carry the legacy of this great orchestra to make music at the highest level with the best conductors and soloists,” he said.
