MASAAKI SUZUKI joins HARRISONPARROTT for General Management
With great pleasure, Masaaki Suzuki announces that he will join HarrisonParrott for General Management. Since founding Bach Collegium Japan in 1990, Masaaki Suzuki has established himself as a leading authority on the works of Bach.
Considered also to be an outstanding expert
on baroque and classical choral repertoire, he regularly conducts orchestras
such as Bavarian Radio, Danish National Radio, Gothenburg Symphony, New York
Philharmonic, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, San Francisco Symphony,
Sydney Symphony, and Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Orchestras.
Present and future highlights include performances with NHK Symphony, Seattle Symphony, Singapore Symphony, and Sydney Symphony orchestras amongst others.
Masaaki has enjoyed 9 years of fruitful
partnership and professional growth with Hazard Chase with James Brown and
Roderick Thompson. Masaaki writes, “I am so grateful for Roderick Thomson and Hazard Chase Team for our
long-term collaboration, although the terrible pandemic forced us all to change
the life. In any situation, we never stop bringing wonderful music to the
audience, and devoting ourselves to it. So I am immensely excited now to start
working with Jasper Parrot and his team.”
Jasper Parrott comments “It is an honour and
privilege to start on this new adventure with Masaaki and Masato Suzuki and the
outstanding Bach Collegium Japan, a great musical treasure which I
have admired so very much over many years and almost countless trips to
Japan. We are glad to be able to give continuity to the devoted and successful
work of Roderick Thompson and James Brown and we look forward to our future
together with faith, hope and much excitement.”

Setting up their own agency in 1969, Jasper
Parrott and Terry Harrison pioneered a new approach to management – one that
was intensively pro-active, international, and centered around the needs and
aspirations of the artists. Today, that restless and challenging spirit is as
strong as ever, shared across one of the most experienced teams in the
business.
