Minnesota Orchestra Creative Partner For Summer Programming
The Minnesota Orchestra outlined a new leadership model for its summer festival in 2019, naming pianist Jon Kimura Parker its first-ever Creative Partner for summer programming and recently announced an extension that will see him continue in this role through 2024. Parker serves as a creative force behind the Orchestra’s popular summer festival, leading a collaborative process with the Music Director, the Musicians’ Artistic Advisory Committee, and artistic staff to develop programming. Parker appears each summer as a host, performer, and personality.
