The Minnesota Orchestra has today announced the appointment of American violinist Felicity James as its new Associate Concertmaster - effective from December of this year.

“We are very excited for Felicity to begin her new role as Associate Concertmaster ... and we are confident that she will be a huge asset to the first violin section and the Orchestra as a whole ..." Minnesota Orchestra Concertmaster Erin Keefe has said.

"She is a beautiful violinist and musician who impressed the audition committee with her incredible poise as a leader,” she has said.

Felicity will replace violinist Roger Frisch - who will retire from the ensemble after 35 years of service.
