The 33-year-old, Bulgarian-born conductor, who will lead his first concert as music director to kick off the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra’s 40th anniversary season next month, is a serious and dedicated musician.

For more than 70 years, in times of war and peace, the leaders of nations, movements and religions have stood before this assembly. Like them, I intend to address some of the very serious threats before us today, but also the enormous potential waiting to be unleashed.
We live in a time of extraordinary opportunity. Breakthroughs in science, technology and medicine are curing illnesses and solving problems that prior generations thought impossible to solve.
But each day also brings news of growing dangers that threaten everything we cherish and value.

Chris, 48, sustained a complete spinal cord injury in a ski accident in 2012 and has been in a wheelchair ever since, completely paralyzed below his chest. Thankfully, he is a fighter and never gave up. Chris’ upbeat personality and can-do attitude helped him to adapt to his new condition and have sustained him ever since. Within a year after the near-fatal injury, he was back teaching at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) where he is an associate professor at the Department of Journalism and Public Relations. His students love him and regard him as an exceptional teacher; his colleagues respect his drive and dedication; he is an active member of the community where he carries advocacy on behalf of the disabled. He has achieved independence and lives with a small companion dog named Ahri.
