Osmo Vänskä
“It is a true honour for the Iceland Symphony Orchestra and a recognition of the work we do that Osmo Vänskä has accepted the title as our Honorary Conductor. As the orchestra´s Chief Conductor in 1993 – 1996 Osmo showed the orchestra its true potential and raised the artistic bar. He is, without a doubt, one of the most important conductors this orchestra works with. We certainly look forward to making music with Osmo in the future.”
