A dynamic presence in the conducting world, Peter Oundjian is renowned across the globe for his vibrant collaborative spirit and engaging musicality.
His career spans five decades, beginning as a solo violinist, and first violinist of the Tokyo String Quartet, followed by an international conducting career leading orchestras in virtually every major musical centre in the world.
After a 14-year tenure as the Music Director of the Toronto Symphony Orchestra, and 6 years at the helm of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, Oundjian was recently named Music Director of the Colorado Music Festival.
“Peter Oundjian expertly conducted the Royal Scottish National Orchestra and Choruses, and the Huddersfield Choral Society. This Prom was undoubtedly the most moving of the season for me.”
“Under Mr. Oundjian the orchestra has maintained its shine, but now it packs a firm punch as well.”
“Things tend to go very well whenever Peter Oundjian makes a guest conducting engagement with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra. His return this weekend for a program of works filled with color and melodic adventure is especially rewarding.”
