Jakub Hrůša

Biography

Before his 25th birthday, conductor Jakub Hrůša had already served as associate conductor of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra, after which he took on three conducting posts simultaneously. By then, Hrůša was also the holder of a recording contract with the Supraphon label. To assert he was then one of the most promising Czech conductors of his generation would have been something of an understatement, as he has gone on to gain further prestigious conducting posts, both in the concert and operatic worlds, and he has appeared on several acclaimed recordings. Hrůša is the chief conductor of the Bamberg Symphony Orchestra, principal guest conductor of the Czech Philharmonic, and he became music director of the Royal Opera, Covent Garden, in 2025.
