Chicago finally picks a maestro
I'm sure you've all seen the news by now that Riccardo Muti will be the next music director of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. There have been some interesting picks lately -- with Marin Alsop going to Baltimore, 41-year-old Alan Gilbert going to his hometown orchestra, the New York Philharmonic, and prodigy Gustavo Dudamel headed for LA.
Given that Muti is undeniably a "catch" -- and if you read the NY Times article, his courtship was something of a lovefest -- where are all the American conductors? And, are there any women out there who have a chance of following Marin to a major orchestra?
