In September 2012, Yannick Nézet-Séguin will become Music Director of the prestigious Philadelphia Orchestra, one of the renowned “big five” of the United States of America. He continues as Music Director of the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra where, at the start of the 2008/2009 season, he has succeeded to Valery Gergiev. He remains Artistic Director and Principal Conductor of the Orchestre Métropolitain of Montreal, a position he took up in March 2000. Since 2008, he is also Principal Guest Conductor of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. A native of Montreal, he studied there at the Conservatoire de Musique du Québec and followed master classes with renowned conductors, notably the great Italian maestro Carlo Maria Giulini.
