MUNICH \u2014 London-born conductor Anthony Bramall<\/a>, 59, has been appointed Chefdirigent<\/em> of the <\/a>Staatstheater am G\u00e4rtnerplatz here, effective next season. He succeeds Marco Comin<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bramall studied singing at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama<\/a>, and conducting with Vil\u00e9m Tausk\u00fd<\/a>. He has already led several productions with the Munich company, lauding the way its orchestra combines \u201cbrilliant sound body with impressive flexibility.\u201d<\/p>\n

The choice was announced today by Josef K\u00f6pplinger<\/a>, the company\u2019s Intendant<\/em>, following advocacy by the musicians themselves. Bramall presently serves as deputy general music director at Oper Leipzig<\/a>, where he is pictured.<\/p>\n

Staatstheater am G\u00e4rtnerplatz<\/a>, devoted to opera, operetta, musicals, and occasional orchestral concerts, remains itinerant while its modest and elegant home undergoes a multi-season and seemingly interminable<\/a> backstage retrofit.<\/p>\n
