Proudly closing @sinfoniarotterdam 2024-2025 season today, not under my baton but our orchestra excelling with 6 talented young conductors during the @conducting_rotterdam International Conducting Competition Rotterdam. A lively open air proms concert at the Stadspodium Rotterdam in front of the iconic Laurenskerk.
