About the conductor Wolfgang Sawallisch

Wolfgang Sawallisch was born in Munich in 1923. His musical studies were interrupted by the war, but after graduating from Munich's Hochschule für Musik he took up his first professional engagement in 1947 as a répétiteur in Augsburg. Six years later he became the youngest general music director in Germany when he moved to Aachen. Between 1960 and 1970 Sawallisch was General Music Director at Hamburg and Principal Conductor of the Philharmonic State Symphony Orchestra there. In addition he was Principal Conductor of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and both orchestras elected him an honorary member and honorary conductor. From 1972 to 1980, as successor to Paul Kletzki, Sawallisch was Artistic Director of the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. In 1971 he became the General Music Director of the Bavarian State Opera in Munich and, having overseen all artistic activities on a temporary basis in the 1976-77 season, took on the additional role of Director of the Bavarian State Opera in 1982. In September 1990 Wolfgang Sawallisch was appointed Music Director of The Philadelphia Orchestra; he officially took up the position at the start of the 1993-94 season and spends 15 weeks of each year with the orchestra. Sawallisch has been conducting regularly in Philadelphia since 1984, and since May 1993, when he toured with the orchestra to Japan, mainland China and Hong Kong, he has undertaken many distinguished tours with the orchestra.
