“The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra has quietly renewed its contract with maestro Krzysztof Urbanski for another two years,” writes Lindsey Erdody in Tuesday’s (7/17) Indianapolis Business Journal. “The symphony confirmed … on Tuesday morning that Urbanski’s contract had been extended in the fall. The 35-year-old conductor will remain with the symphony through the 2019-2020 season…. In the upcoming season, the on-the-rise conductor will play for nine weeks, including during the Opening Night Gala with Itzhak Perlman and the two-week Paris Festival. The season starts in September…. In fall 2013, the symphony announced it had extended Urbanski’s contract—then set to expire in 2015—through the 2017-2018 season. Urbanski joined the orchestra in 2011 and is the seventh music director in the ISO’s 88-year history.”
