Reservoir Founder & CEO Golnar Khosrowshahi Joins New York Philharmonic Board of Directors
June 30 2022 - 8:00AM
Reservoir Media, Inc. (NASDAQ: RSVR), an award-winning independent
music company, today announced that its Founder and CEO Golnar
Khosrowshahi is joining the New York Philharmonic Board of
Directors. Effective immediately, Khosrowshahi will join fellow
board members in providing oversight and enabling the New York
Philharmonic to continue to grow and share music at a global scale.
Founded in 1842, the New York Philharmonic is
the oldest symphony orchestra in the United States, and one of the
oldest in the world. The New York Philharmonic connects with up to
50 million music lovers each season through live concerts in New
York and around the world, as well as broadcasts, recordings, and
education programs.
The 2022–23 season marks a new chapter in the
life of America’s longest living orchestra with the opening of the
reimagined David Geffen Hall and programming that engages with
today’s cultural conversations through explorations of home,
liberation, spirit, and earth, in addition to the premieres of 16
new works. This marks the return from the pandemic, when the New
York Philharmonic launched New York Philharmonic Bandwagon,
presenting free performances across the city, and 2021–22 concerts
at other New York City venues.
On joining the New York Philharmonic Board of Directors,
Khosrowshahi said, “It is a huge honor to be asked to join the
board of the greatest orchestra in the greatest city in the world.
The composition and execution of music across genres and
particularly classical music is, in my view, the highest form of
art, and I am grateful for the opportunity to lend my support.” She
added, “I am also excited to be joining the board at a time when
the orchestra is undergoing a meaningful transition and to assist
in its mission to expand its reach to new audiences.”
New York Philharmonic Co-Chairman Oscar L. Tang
added, “Golnar will be an important addition to the New York
Philharmonic Board because of her knowledge, insight, acumen, and
passion for music. I have gotten to know Golnar over the past few
years and know that her contributions will strengthen our
leadership as the orchestra embarks on our next great era
inaugurated by our return to the reimagined David Geffen Hall.”
CEO of the New York Philharmonic Deborah Borda also commented,
“It is rare that we are able to partner with a board member who
brings a combination of musical expertise, business acumen, and an
understanding of media on a global scale. This fortified by her
commitment to developing the outreach of the Philharmonic as we
enter a new epoch is such an important addition to our board. As we
enter a time of a reimagined future, we are delighted Golnar will
be a part of it.”
