Zuber leaves Bern in 2021
Bern Opera and Concert Director Xavier Zuber will end his engagement in the federal city in summer 2021. His successor will be announced in due course, writes KTB.
The four-genre theater is currently being managed on an interim basis by the entire management under the chairmanship of Commercial Director Anton Stocker. The designated artistic director Florian Scholz, currently still employed at Theater Klagenfurt, will take over the overall artistic management for the 2021.22 season.
Born in Basel, Zuber has been Opera and Concert Director at Konzert Theater Bern since the 2011.12 season. He created new formats such as the seat cushion concerts for children and the Schweizerhof brunch. His tenure also saw the merger between the Bern Symphony Orchestra and Konzert Theater Bern, as well as concert tours of the Bern Symphony Orchestra through China and England.
