List of principal conductors by orchestra

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by DJRafe (talk | contribs) at 00:49, 16 November 2016 (new countries (Venezuela, Vietnam), entries & update on Gewandhaus). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

This is a non-exhaustive list of principal conductors by orchestra, classified by country and by city. The term 'principal conductor' is used here as an umbrella term to encompass such titles as:

  • Principal conductor
  • Music director
  • Chief conductor

The term 'music director' is more common in the USA and Canada, whereas 'principal conductor' or 'chief conductor' is more prevalent elsewhere. For orchestras which have both a music director and a principal conductor, such as the Royal Northern Sinfonia and Orchestra Sinfonica di Milano Giuseppe Verdi, the person with the title of music director is given preference by hierarchy.

Orchestras which choose not to have principal conductors, such as the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra and the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, are omitted from this list. Likewise, principal conductors for opera companies are omitted, unless the orchestra of that opera company performs orchestral concerts under a separate name.
