Rotterdam Philharmon­ic Orchestra

With Lahav Shani following in the footsteps of Valery Gergiev and Yannick Nézetségui­n, the Rotterdam Philharmon­ic continues to electrify with irresistib­le intensity

-

Founded in 1918; raised by Eduard Flipse; brought to internatio­nal fame under Jean Fournet and Edo de Waart; acknowledg­ed as world class since the Valery Gergiev and Yannick Nézet-séguin era… In its first 100 years, the Rotterdam Philharmon­ic has climbed up from local hero to global player. Now, with the brilliant Lahav

Shani having taken over, the orchestra has entered a new century while keeping close ties with its former chiefs. Come and meet the Rotterdam Philharmon­ic in their home port De Doelen and prepare to be carried away.
