A conductor who has established an outstanding reputation for a charismatic stage presence and powerful interpretations of an extensive repertoire, Dr Nicholas Milton has conducted orchestras across Europe and Australia. He has over 60 albums to his name as both a conductor and as a violinist, and has been nominated for a Grammy.
As chief conductor of the Göttinger Symphony Orchestra, he spends much of the year in Germany, but he still calls Australia home. And one home that is particularly dear to his heart is his role as chief conductor of the Willoughby Symphony Orchestra.
Nicholas shares some musical highlights that we have in store for the rest of the year with the Willoughby Symphony, and takes us on a journey through his impressive career, from his time as a young successful violinist to becoming a sought after conductor.
