AMIT PELED NAMED MUSIC DIRECTOR
The Board of Trustees of CityMusic Cleveland is excited to announce the appointment of Music Director Amit Peled, effective with the 2019-2020 season. In 2019-20 the Israeli-American cellist, conductor, and pedagogue will conduct two five-concert series. Avner Dorman will continue to work with CityMusic in the position of Music Director Emeritus.
Of his appointment, Peled says, “I am deeply honored and excited to be named the next music director of CityMusic. Ever since my first encounter with the orchestra this past spring, I have felt that I found a musical home, a place where making music at the highest level meets the desire to share the art form with as many people as possible and ensuring that it is available to audiences free of charge. I look forward to continuing this special tradition and to enhance it even further. I can’t wait to meet as many people as possible from the community and of course to dive into the symphonic repertoire with my fellow musicians in the orchestra. Lastly, as a huge NBA fan, I’m excited to check out the Cavaliers games in between rehearsals and concerts!”
