The grand man of Estonian music, Maestro Neeme Jarvi, is probably one of the best known Estonian musicians in the world. Over his long and highly successful career he has held positions with orchestras across the world. Last season he took up his tenure as Artistic and Music Director of the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. He is also currently Artistic Director of the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra and Music Director Emeritus of both the Residentie Orkest Netherland Hague and the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. He also holds the titles of Principal Conductor Emeritus of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra and Conductor Laureate of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. ERP dedicates the sixth edition of the 'Great Maestros' series to the conductor, who is celebrating his 80th birthday this year and also looking forward to an ECHO Klassik.
