Christoph von Dohnányi
In 2007 he was chosen from a worldwide field as one of three participants in the International Conductor's Academy of the [[Allianz Cultural Foundation]]. This involved a year-long mentorship with the [[London Philharmonic Orchestra]] (LPO) and the [[Philharmonia Orchestra]], with conductors [[Christoph von Dohnányi]] and [[Vladimir Jurowski]]. This culminated in a performance of [[Igor Stravinsky|Stravinsky]]'s [[Symphony in C (Stravinsky)|Symphony in C]] in June 2008 at the [[Royal Festival Hall]] in London.
