Ireland’s leading ensemble for young musicians, the National Youth Orchestra of Ireland (NYOI) announces the appointment of Anna Rosa Mari to the role of General Manager. Prior to joining the NYOI, Anna was the Academic Director of OAcademy Music Conservatory from the Orchestra of the Americas Group, a global organisation, based in Washington USA, offering prime performance training to young professional musicians.
Anna brings over a decade of experience in arts education, management, and artistic leadership to her new role.
