RPO Music Director:
Christopher Seaman
Christopher Seaman is the current Music Director with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra. This internationally renowned British conductor has become an integral part of the RPO and the greater Rochester community, and is recognized as having raised the artistic level of the Orchestra to its present excellence.
Recognized worldwide as one of today's leading conductors, he recently completed a highly successful tenure as conductor-in-residence at the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, where he had worked with former RPO Music Director David Zinman since 1987. Other tenures have included Principal Conductor of the BBC Scottish Symphony and of the Northern Sinfonia.
Highly sought-after as a guest conductor throughout the world and noted for his strong command of a broad repertoire, Mr. Seaman has had regular engagements in North America, Israel, Eastern Europe, the Far East, Australia and New Zealand, as well as in Great Britain.
His recordings include performances with the Royal Philharmonic, the Philharmonia Orchestra and the National Youth Orchestra of Britain. Mr. Seaman has recorded two CDs with the RPO, one with pianist Jon Nakamatsu which was released in September 2001, and one with pianist Olga Kern, which was released last fall and which has already been hailed by the Democrat and Chronicle as sensational.
