Just two seasons into his initial term, the Kansas City Symphony is already extending Matthias Pintscher into next decade as their Music Director and artistic leader. In his first two seasons, Matthias has elevated the orchestra’s profile both domestically and internationally, leading them on their first ever tour to Europe in 2024, and they are returning for a second tour in August 2026. Through compelling programming balancing a spate of contemporary voices with canonic masterworks, and especially through his unflagging energy, endless creativity, and total dedication, Matthias has helped elevate the Kansas City Symphony into prominence and among the top tier orchestras of North America.<\/p>\n
