Welcome to James S. Kahane !

The young conductor joins our artists

The musical year has just ended for the conductor James S. Kahane, with successful concerts with the Mulhouse Symphony Orchestra and the Helsinki Chamber Orchestra, and we are very pleased to announce that he is now one of our artists; we will be representing him on French territory.

The 26-year-old French conductor, who has been living in Finland for a few years, has already had a rich career, conducting many leading orchestras such as the Finnish Radio Orchestra, the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra, the Lucerne Festival Strings and the Gstaad Festival Orchestra.

At the age of 21 he was appointed assistant conductor to Susanna Mälkki at the Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra, where he served until autumn 2018. He then helped found the Helsinki Chamber Orchestra, where he is still the principal conductor to this day, and he also holds the same position with the Finnish Polytechnic Orchestra.
