1 on 1 with Kristiina Poska & Frederik Styns
Kristiina Poska, chief conductor, and Frederik Styns, intendant, discuss their musical dreams, first impressions and the DNA of Flanders Symphony Orchestra. An ideal introduction for those who do not yet know FSO, and an extra peek behind the scenes for those who have been following the orchestra for years.
We brought Frederik Styns and Kristiina Poska together in the Concert Hall of Muziekcentrum De Bijloke. In the Hall, they did not find the familiar rehearsal or concert setting, but were surprised with six question cards ...
