Ashley Thouret says: “I am thrilled to be signing conductor Marcus Bosch to IMG Artists for worldwide general management. Marcus is a wonder on the podium with a hugely diversified repertoire. His fresh interpretations are first and foremost at the service of the music, strictly adherent to style and yet always with his own signature upon them – one that is ‘obvious but never exaggerated’. Marcus has an uncanny command in his demeanour, and is beloved and respected by the musicians he works with – orchestras, instrumental soloists and singers alike. We look forward to developing his career and reaching a more international scope from his traditional German GMD background.”
