2025/26, a unique season for the Luxembourg Philharmonic.
A new chapter is beginning for the Luxembourg Philharmonic: for the first time in its recent history, it will embark on an entire season without a principal Music Director.
Following ten years of fruitful collaboration with Gustavo Gimeno, the baton will officially be passed in October 2026 to young conductor Martin Rajna. Until then, our musicians are set to experience an exciting collective journey, highlighted by reunions with prestigious conductors such as Sir John Eliot Gardiner, Renaud Capuçon, Tugan Sokhiev, Paavo Järvi, Leopold Hager, Daniele Rustioni, Robin Ticciati, and of course, Martin Rajna himself, who will conduct three concerts this season.
This unique context sparks a fresh dynamic in which the musicians are encouraged to embrace greater autonomy and assert their individual voices. As Haoxing Liang, one of the orchestra’s concertmaster, puts it: «More than ever, we are responsible for one another».
The 2025/26 season will therefore be as much a human adventure as an artistic one - built on trust, attentive listening, and a deep sense of collective cohesion.
« We're actually looking forward to it. We're curious to see what's in store for us. » - Seohee Min
