The head of a musical dynasty, Neeme Järvi is one of today’s most respected maestros. He is Music and Artistic Director of the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Artistic Director of the Estonian National Symphony Orchestra, and Chief Conductor Emeritus of the Residentie Orchestra The Hague, as well as Music Director Emeritus of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra, Principal Conductor Emeritus of the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, and Conductor Laureate of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. He has appeared as guest conductor with the Berliner Philharmoniker, Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra, Orchestre de Paris, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, London Philharmonic Orchestra, BBC Symphony Orchestra, Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, and Wiener Symphoniker, as well as, in the US, the Los Angeles Philharmonic and National Symphony Orchestra in Washington D.C., among others. He has collaborated with soloists such as Janine Jansen, Martha Argerich, Mischa Maisky, Vadim Repin, Evgeny Kissin, Truls Mørk, Hélène Grimaud, and Vadim Gluzman. Highlights of an impressive discography of more than 450 recordings include critically acclaimed cycles of the complete symphonies of Prokofiev, Sibelius, Nielsen, and Brahms, as well as recent series of orchestral works by Halvorsen and Svendsen, and a cycle of symphonic arrangements by Henk de Vlieger of operas by Wagner. Neeme Järvi has also championed less widely known Nordic composers such as Wilhelm Stenhammar, Hugo Alfvén, and Niels W. Gade, and composers from his native Estonia, including Rudolf Tobias, Eduard Tubin, and Arvo Pärt. Among many international awards and accolades, he has received an honorary doctorate from the Music Academy of Estonia in Tallinn, the Order of the National Coat of Arms from the President of the Republic of Estonia, honorary doctorates of Humane Letters from Wayne State University in Detroit and the University of Michigan, as well as honorary doctorates from the University of Aberdeen and the Royal Swedish Academy of Music. He has also been appointed Commander of the North Star Order by King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden.
