The Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire (ONPL) is a symphony orchestra based in Angers and Nantes, France. The orchestra receives support from the Regional Council of the Pays de la Loire. The precursor ensembles to the future ONPL were the orchestra of the ''Opéra de Nantes'' and the orchestra of the ''Société des Concerts Populaires d'Angers''. In 1971 these two orchestras united into a single organisation, the 114-member ''Orchestre Philharmonique des Pays de la Loire'' (OPPL), recruited by competition throughout France.〔Harding J. A new French orchestra. ''Performance'', 1, Winter 1980/81.〕 It gave its first concert under that name in September 1971, with Pierre Dervaux, the OPPL's first music director, conducting. Dervaux served as music director until 1976. Although based in Angers and Nantes the orchestra gave concerts in all the main towns of the Loire region. In 1979 the orchestra toured to Romania, Bulgaria and Poland, and made its first visit to London in 1980.〔 Subsequent music directors were Marc Soustrot (1976-1994), Hubert Soudant (1994-2004), and Isaac Karabtchevsky (2004-2010). In April 2009, the ONPL announced the appointment of John Axelrod as its next music director, effective September 2010, with an initial contract of 3 years. Early recordings by the orchestra included orchestral works by Vincent d'Indy (Grand Prix du Disque, 1977), and music by Rabaud and Pierné (all EMI).〔 Later CDs included Guillou's Concerto Grosso and Concerto 2000, Ravel's Boléro and other works, and Tchaikovsky’s 5th Symphony. ==Music directors== * Pierre Dervaux (1971-1976) * Marc Soustrot (1976-1994) * Hubert Soudant (1994-2004) * Isaac Karabtchevsky (2004-2010) * John Axelrod (2010-present) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Orchestre National des Pays de la Loire」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
