Who's Conducting Which Orchestra?

A guide to who is currently conducting some of the world's leading orchestras.

Like me, you probably have a hard time keeping track of who is conducting what orchestra. So, here is a list of some of the world's leading orchestras and their current conductors. If you hear of a change, please forward it to me (pucciojj@gmail.com) to help keep the list updated.

Also, my apologies if I did not include your favorite orchestra. For simple housekeeping reasons, I tried to keep the list as concise as possible. However, I'm sure I overlooked somebody important, and I am open to suggestions.
