This is a research page for the Concertmaster AR.

(1st) Concertmaster / Leader

Position Example Comment
Concertmaster Andreas Buschatz, Berliner Philharmoniker
1st Concertmaster Guy Braunstein, Berliner Philharmoniker One of 3 first CMs
Principal Concertmaster Tobias Steymans, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks Webpage translates "1. Konzertmeister" with "Principal CM".
1st Principal Concertmaster ?
Alternating Concertmaster ? Literal translation from Scandinavian?
Leader Gordan Nikolitch, London Symphony Orchestra Possibly: Concertmaster = American, Leader = English?
1st leader Erkki Palola, Helsinki Philharmonic Orchestra
Concertino dei primi violini Teatro alla Scala No, that WAS the English page.
Konzertmeister 1b Opernhaus Zürich I do hope no other orchestra uses this... It's not in their list over members.

Associate Concertmaster

Position Example Comment
Associate Concertmaster Nancy Wu, The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra
Associate Concertmaster Georg Liener, BR Münchner Rundfunk Orchester "Stellvertretender Konzertmeister" in German. English page even uses the term "deputy CM"!
Associate Concertmaster GSO Alt. förste k. in Swedish; literally "alternating first CM"
Wouldn't this be "Alternating Concertmaster", not "Associate Concertmaster"? BrianSchweitzer 06:50, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Yes, literally, but they use "Associate" in the English description of the job (2nd part of the page). It looks like another word is used in English. IF they bother with a translation. --symphonick 10:21, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Alt. Concert Master Norrköping Symphony Orchestra The Swedish & English pages are not synced, but this orchestra clearly uses "alt." in English too.
Principal Associate Concertmaster Laura Hamilton, The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra
Associate Concertmaster Boston Symphony Orchestra Both Associate & Assistant CM in the same orchestra.
Associate Leader BBC National Orchestra of Wales

So Associate CM != Assistant CM, but I haven't found a good explanation of the differences yet. Actually it looks like Associate CM > Assistant CM.

IIRC, we've found the same A > A for all other places we've added both attribs, so at least it's consistent.  :) BrianSchweitzer 06:25, 26 December 2010 (UTC)

Position Example Comment
Assisting Concertmaster Lyndon Johnston Taylor, New Zealand Symphony Orchestra

1st Assistant Concertmaster Tjeerd Top, Concertgebouw Orchestra "assistant principal violinist" according to the official homepage.
2nd Assistant Concertmaster Simon James, Seattle Symphony
Co-Concertmaster Pam Dassenko, San Luis Obispo Symphony
Co-Concertmaster Orchestre de la Suisse Romande French: premier violon solo remplaçant
2nd Deputy Leader GSO Andre konsertmästare = literally 2nd CM

3nd Concertmaster Ingrid Sjönnemo, Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra My translation, GSO uses Google translate for the webpage :-( Would have to see a job ad to know what their translation is.
Concertmaster Emeritus ?

Assistant Leader Tomo Keller, London Symphony Orchestra
Co-Leader Carmine Lauri, London Symphony Orchestra
