Rosmarie Quadranti becomes SMR President
On April 6, National Councillor Rosmarie Quadranti was elected President of the Swiss Music Council in Zurich. She succeeds Irène Philipp Ziebold, who held the office on an interim basis for two years.
The delegates of the Swiss Music Council (SMR) unanimously elected Rosmarie Quadranti, Volketswil (ZH), as President on April 6 in Zurich. She has been a member of the National Council since 2011, President of the BDP parliamentary group since 2015 and a member of the Science, Education and Culture Committee, among other things.
Irène Philipp Ziebold took over the SMR presidency on an interim basis in 2016 following the death of Markus Flury. Her great commitment to the Swiss Music Council was acknowledged and thanked.
The SMR currently has 50 members. The Swiss Youth Symphony Orchestra is a new member. The Youth Classics association, the Gesellschaft für die Volksmusik der Schweiz GVS and the jugend + musik association have terminated their SMR membership (dissolution at the end of 2017). Sonart - Musikschaffende Schweiz is also a member of the Music Council; this association was created on January 1, 2018 from the merger of the Schweizerischer Tonkünstlerverein with Musikschaffende Schweiz and the Schweizer Musik Syndikat.
