Reviews for Orchestra Management in Practice

"""I have no doubt that this companion is an unprecedented contribution to comprehending the 'business' of orchestra management, an essential foundation for supporting these remarkable institutions in navigating the present and preparing for the future."" Christopher Brenner, University of Music & Conservatorio della Svizzera italiana, Switzerland ""As First Concertmaster of the Tonhalle Zürich Orchestra, I am actively engaged in both strategic and day-to-day artistic decisions for the ensemble. In this role, I find that Dr Salvaggio's book is proving to be an invaluable resource. Had this book been available a decade ago, it would have significantly increased my capacity to make well-informed decisions, not just artistically but also at the management level within the orchestral field."" Klaidi Sahatchi, First Concertmaster, Tonhalle Zürich Orchestra ""During my 6-year term as Qatar Foundations’s Vice President for Research, Development, and Innovation, Salvino served as my Chief of Staff, effectively managing a team of over 500 and diverse research projects. His new book is a synthesis of his love for classical music and his managerial expertise. It stands as a pivotal resource, offering transformative approaches to orchestral management in a rapidly changing, multicultural world. For those committed to best management practices and innovation within the orchestral field, this book is not just beneficial—it's essential."" Dr Richard O'Kennedy, Former VP for Research, Development and Innovation, Qatar Foundation"
