Following an extensive recruitment process, the Board of Melbourne Chamber Orchestra has appointed Adele Schonhardt OAM as the organisation’s new Executive Director.
Board Chair Fran Thorn said, ‘We are delighted with the appointment of Adele as our next Executive Director – she brings to the role drive and deep knowledge of classical music. Her absolute commitment to music in Australia has recently been shown through her co-founding of the ADCH [Australian Digital Concert Hall], which was a literal lifeline for our sector during a difficult period. We are looking to a great future with Adele Schonhardt and Sophie Rowell at the helm of the MCO.’
