Harding was 43 years old, born in Oxford, England in 1975. He has served as the music director of Orchester de Paris since the 2016/2017 season.

But he has already announced that he will resign as the term of office in 2019 expires. With this appointment, there is also a direction that Harding seems to rise rapidly as Gatti’s successor candidate.

However, Harding was once told that he wishes to suspend activities for a while after leaving Orchester de Paris in order to obtain a Pilot license.
