Reorganization of the Music Council office
The office of the Swiss Music Council (SMR) has been reorganized: Stefano Kunz, the previous managing director, is now in charge of political work, while Nina Rindlisbacher has taken over the management of the office. Together with the President, National Councillor Rosmarie Quadranti, they now form the Executive Board.
Stefano Kunz, a trained singer, singing teacher and graduate of an MBA in Integral Management, took over the management of the SMR in 2012. He has also been a city councillor in Schlieren (ZH) since 2014. As his city council mandate is very time-consuming and he was also appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors around a year ago, he has decided to hand over the management of the SMR. In future, he will devote himself exclusively to political work at the Music Council.
Nina Rindlisbacher is a qualified nurse and lawyer. She initially worked in the healthcare sector and then worked as a lawyer for several years, including at the Faculty of Law at the University of Fribourg. She has always been involved in the cultural sector as a sideline. She has worked for film and music festivals and for ten years for a concert organizer in Bern. She plays the flute and piano and has been involved in several music projects as an instrumentalist and singer over the years. She has been working for the SMR as an assistant since December 2017 and took over the management of the office on September 1, 2018.
