Salonen\u2019s new positions, with their planning and conducting responsibilities, raise questions about whether replacements for Dudamel and M\u00e4kel\u00e4 will be necessary. The Orchestre de Paris doesn\u2019t expect to hire a new music director. But Kim Noltemy, the Los Angeles Philharmonic\u2019s president and chief executive, said the ensemble was planning to move forward with its search, while retiring the artistic portion of Dudamel\u2019s title, which had been added for him.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to ensure that the music director role oversees the general vision of the musical excellence and growth of the L.A. Phil,\u201d Noltemy said. \u201cWe still feel like it\u2019s an incredible opportunity.\u201d (She added that creative director role, endowed by Judith and Thomas L. Beckmen, will become permanent.)<\/p>\n
The Philharmonie, whose founders included Boulez, has a substantial footprint, with multiple performance spaces as well as facilities for exhibitions and education, similar to Lincoln Center in New York. In addition to the Orchestre de Paris, the campus houses the Ensemble Intercontemporain, also founded by Boulez.<\/p>\n
Olivier Mantei, the general director of the Philharmonie, said that the spirit of Boulez remains in the center\u2019s sensibility, and that having Salonen, who knew Boulez well, carry it on will be \u201ca new marvel for us.\u201d<\/p>\n
Salonen called the Philharmonie a \u201cfantastic campus\u201d and said that while such an expansive canvas might be a challenge, \u201cit\u2019s also great because if I can find a way to use all of the campus, I will.\u201d Already, he is working on a 2027 festival that Los Angeles and Paris will share.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think every orchestra on the planet should really take a good look at the model as we know it,\u201d he said. \u201cIs this something that can be modified or even abandoned, or something maybe not in sync with the rest of the world? I don\u2019t know. But this kind of deal I\u2019m entering is good because both places have the space to explore what the answer would be.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
