Osmo Vänskä Will Stay With Minnesota Orchestra Until At Least 2022

"The orchestra announced Monday morning that the longtime music director has signed a new, three-year contract through its 2021-22 season. The extension came early - Vänskä's current contract expires at the end of the 2018-19 season. ... The new contract would extend his total tenure to 19 years, matching the orchestra's two longest-serving music directors, Emil Oberhoffer and Stanislaw Skrowaczewski."
