Michail Jurowski:
Michail Jurowski was born in 1945 as a son of the famous composer Vladimir Jurowski. He grew up in the circle of worldwide renowned artists of the former Soviet Union such as D. Ojstrach, M. Rostropovitch, L. Kogan, E. Gilels, and A. Chatchaturjan. The Jurowski family was also very close to Dmitri Shostakovich. Jurowski was educated at the highest level at the Moscow Conservatory, where he studied conducting under Leo Ginsburg and music science under Alexei Kandinsky. Already during his studies he assisted Gennadi Rozhdestvensky at the National Radio and Television Symphony Orchestra of Moscow. From 1978 on Jurowski was a regular guest conductor at Berlin’s Komische Oper. In 1989 an invitation by the Semperoper in Dresden led to a permanent engagement. He has been living in Germany ever since and within the shortest time became one of the most sought after conductors for both theatres and concerts.
The most significant milestones in his career in the German language area include:
1989-1996 Permanent conductor at the Semperoper Dresden;
1992-1998 General music director and chief conductor of the Northwest German Philharmonic Orchestra in Herford;
1997-1999 General Music Director and chief conductor of the North German Philharmonic Orchestra and the Volkstheater Rostock;
1999-2001 Chief conductor of the Leipzig Opera;
1998-2006 Regular guest conductor of the Berlin Radio Symphony Orchestra;
2001-2006 Regular guest conductor of the Deutsche Oper Berlin;
Since 2003 First guest conductor of the Tonkünstler Orchestra of Lower Austria;
Since 2006 Chief conductor of the WDR Radio Symphony Orchestra Cologne.
