It is my great honor to introduce you to the next music director of San Francisco Opera. I am delighted that Eun Sun Kim will join us as our fourth music director after a spectacular debut in Rusalka.
Eun Sun Kim brings a unique energy to the Company. She connects all of us — audiences, artists, technicians, administrators — in the pursuit of one singular artistic journey, bringing thoughtful leadership, deep compassion, and an incredible respect for everyone in the theater. She leads with great vision on the podium but also welcomes each and every person into the creative process, inviting them to do their very best work. The resulting art is spectacular. This community can look forward to a future of extraordinary music-making that connects deeply to the core of what it means to be human.
It is a privilege to welcome Eun Sun to be our next music director.
Matthew Shilvock
General Director
