Young Finnish conductor Santtu-Matias Rouvali will step down as chief conductor of Sweden’s Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra at the end of the 2024/2025 season, a position he has held since 2017.

Rouvali succeeds Esa-Pekka Salonen as principal conductor of the London-based Philharmonia Orchestra beginning in the 2021/2022 season, a five-year term. Rouvali was born in Lahti in 1985 and is 38 years old. He is the youngest principal conductor of a major orchestra in London.
