German conductor Wolf-Dieter Hauschild, who had a close relationship with New Japan Philharmonic passed away on May 26, 2023. I was 85 years old.
2001年12月29日に93歳で亡くなられた指揮者朝比奈隆氏の代役として、2002年3月に第336回定期演奏会にご出演いただき、予定していたブルックナーの交響曲第5番を指揮されたのが最初の共演でした。
After that, he conducted 23 concerts with New Japan Philharmonic, and his last appearance was the 519th regular concert on January 24th and 25th, 2014.
Here, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude and condolences for the contributions of Mr. Hauschild during his lifetime.
