NY Phil concertmaster to join Music Academy of the West faculty in 2014
The Music Academy of the West has announced that New York
Philharmonic concertmaster Glenn Dicterow will join its string
faculty in 2014.
The violinist (left) is no stranger to the Santa Barbara-based
Academy's summer school and festival, having been a visiting artist
in 2011 and 2012. He is set to return to perform at this year's
festival, before assuming formal faculty duties in 2014. His role
at the Academy will include individual teaching, chamber ensemble
coaching, and developing a string leadership programme for
promising concertmasters and section principals.
Dicterow is set to step down as concertmaster of the New York
Philharmonic at the end of the 2013–14 season, but he plans to
continue performing as a soloist and chamber musician.
