Stephen Wright, Chairman of Van Walsum, says:
“I am delighted that Kazushi Ono is joining Van Walsum for worldwide management. For many years now, I have both admired, and enjoyed, his passionate and elegant conducting.”
The Financial Times has praised Ono’s ability to combine “sheer excitement with breadth of vision and exquisite timing,” while the New York Times, reviewing his Metropolitan Opera debut in 2007, observed that: “People on both sides of the footlights seemed impressed by Kazushi Ono’s conducting, filled with a musical energy narrowed and pinpointed by elegant technique.” At the end of March 2010 he returns to the Metropolitan Opera, New York, to conduct Der fliegende Holländer together with performances of Stravinsky’s Le Rossignol at the Aix-en-Provence Festival this summer and Verdi’s Nabucco at the Bayerische Staatsoper in 10/11.
