We're delighted to announce British conductor Jules Buckley as new Chief Conductor of Metropole Orchestra

Jules Buckley: “I was thrilled to be invited to become the Chief Conductor of the Metropole Orchestra, and look forward to building on the successes that we have had together across the past few years.  As one of the world’s leading non-classical orchestras, the stage is set for Metropole to continue to work with established artists, while we seek out new and contemporary artists who have the ambition to hear their work performed on an orchestral scale.”
