In Reply to: 40 under 40: Who's the A list conductor under 40 currently? posted by kuma on January 27, 2016 at 22:17:20:
My wife and I recently saw Krzysztof Urbanski conduct the SF Symphony in Beethoven's Emperor Concerto (with AX) and Dvorak's 9th. First time for both of these works for my wife. He was extremely impressive in his command of the scores and the orchestra - really good concert, even if these are huge warhorses. He conducts on a fuller time basis in Trondheim and Indianapolis. Hopefully he will be back next year.
I am sure someone will mention Robin Ticciati, who is(was) a protégé of Colin Davis, and seems to be building quite a career.
