Jun Märkel to become Music Director of the Malaysian Philharmonic

The Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra has announced that Jun Märkel will become its Music Director in 2021. You can read all about it here. Märkel is one of the guest conductors who I am sure was high on the list of candidates to become the next Music Director of the Oregon Symphony. It is not impossible for him to still be in the running for the MD job with the Oregon Symphony, but the MPO offers a full season and the flight from Kuala Lumpur to Portland is probably very long and tiring.
