About this user

Brazilian-born Marcelo Lehninger is increasingly recognized as one of
the most gifted conductors of his generation. Appointed assistant
conductor of the Boston Symphony Orchestra by James Levine, Mr.
Lehninger is the second Brazilian conductor to hold this position; the
first was Eleazar de Carvalho, who shared the position with Leonard
Bernstein.

Mr. Lehninger made his BSO debut in 2010 with the violinist Pinchas
Zukerman as soloist and in 2011 he stepped in for Maestro Levine at
short notice to conduct the world premiere of Harrison Birtwistle's
Violin Concerto with Christian Testzlaff. Also in 2011, with the BSO,
he made an acclaimed debut at Carnegie Hall in New York and critic
Anthony Tommasini wrote in the New York Times: "He was terrific,
conducting all three works with impressive technique, musical insight
and youthful energy." Maestro Lehninger's next BSO appearances include
a subscription night in the 2011/12 season with pianist Peter Serkin
and his debut at Tanglewood in 2012.

Acclaimed by the Washington Post as "an alert, dynamic figure", he
served as cover conductor for the National Symphony Orchestra's
subscription concerts at the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC and
associate conductor of the Minas Gerais Philharmonic Orchestra, in
Brazil.

Mr. Lehninger was music advisor of the Youth Orchestra of the Americas
for the 2007-08 season. Placido Domingo serves as artistic advisor for
the ensemble, which is composed of 120 talented musicians from more
than twenty countries throughout the Americas. In summer of 2008,
Maestro Lehninger toured with YOA and pianist Nelson Freire in South
America.

In 2001 he placed second in the First Eleazar de Carvalho National
Conducting Competition in Rio de Janeiro, subsequently leading all of
the top orchestras in Brazil as well as regular guest conducting in
Argentina. In the United States, he led the Boston, Houston, New West,
Hartford, Fairfax and Jacksonville symphony orchestras. An alumnus of
the National Conducting Institute, he made a highly praised debut with
the National Symphony Orchestra in 2007 at the Kennedy Center in
Washington, DC and was invited to conduct the NSO in summer 2008.

Chosen by Kurt Masur, Mr. Lehninger was awarded the First Felix
Mendelssohn-Bartholdy Scholarship sponsored by the American Friends of
the Mendelssohn Foundation in 2008, spending one month as Maestro
Masur's assistant with the Orchestre National de France, Gewandhaus
Orchestra in Leipzig and the New York Philharmonic.

Maestro Lehninger participated in the 2009 Malko Competition for Young
Conductors in Denmark, leading the Danish Radio Symphony Orchestra at
Copenhagen's Koncerthuset and in the 2011 Bruno Walter National
Conductor Preview, conducting the Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra.

Before dedicating his career to conducting, Mr. Lehninger studied
violin and piano. He holds a Master's degree from the Conductors
Institute at New York's Bard College, where he studied conducting
under Harold Farberman and composition with Laurence Wallach. In
Brazil he studied with Roberto Tibiriçá, and he has also participated
in master classes with Kurt Masur, Leonard Slatkin, Marin Alsop, Moche
Atzmon and Andreás Weiss.

Citizen of Brazil and Germany, Marcelo Goulart Lehninger is the son of
pianist Sônia Goulart and violinist Erich Lehninger. He is married to
Laura Anne Krech and lives in Boston, MA.
