Joshua Weilerstein
American conductor and violinist Joshua Weilerstein is the product of a musical family, which includes his father, violinist Donald Weilerstein, his mother, pianist Vivian Hornik Weilerstein, and his sister, cellist Alisa Weilerstein, who perform together as the Weilerstein Trio. A Boston native, Weilerstein began his career shortly after winning the Malko Competition for Young Conductors in Copenhagen, which led to an appointment as assistant conductor of the New York Philharmonic. While working with that orchestra, Weilerstein participated in Young People’s Concerts, and also served as concert master of the Discovery Ensemble, a chamber orchestra based in Boston that works with inner-city schools. Weilerstein has been a guest conductor with major orchestras in the United States and Canada, and has developed important connections to several orchestras in Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, and Germany. For the 2015-16 concert season, Weilerstein appeared with the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, the San Diego Symphony Orchestra, the Naples Philharmonic, the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra, the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, the Philharmonia Orchestra, the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie, the SWR Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra, the Lahti Symphony Orchestra, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. As of 2016, Weilerstein is the artistic director of the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne.
