Meanwhile, Evans will be promoted to the position of Concerts Director. Evans held the role of the RPO’s Concerts Manager since 2016 and has built a comprehensive knowledge of the Orchestra’s operations and diverse programme of activity.
In a statement, Music Director Vasily Petrenko said, “As the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra continues to attract new and diverse audiences to its concerts in London, the UK, and internationally, we are excited to be strengthening our artistic leadership with two new appointments. I look forward to welcoming Tom and to working with Frances in her new role as Concerts Director. Together we will ensure a bright artistic future for the RPO.”
