Pamela Rosenberg, whom many of you remember from her memorable tenure heading San Francisco Opera, announced last year that she would not be staying with the Berlin Philharmonic beyond the expiration of her current contract next year. Bloomberg reports that she is being replaced by Martin Hoffmann, a 49-year-old German television producer (and attorney), described by conductor Simon Rattle as “the right person to support us on our creative journey.”
Hmmmmmm. Let’s hope this isn’t an artistic “Funeral in Berlin.”
