Mark Kadin’s performances are described as "an enchanting dialogue between the mind and emotions" (Decrescendo), "...not just a concert, but a transformative experience" (El Universal). As a conductor of deep expertise and refined musicality, he is particularly celebrated for his prowess in the Eastern European and Scandinavian symphonic traditions, and for his interpretations of contemporary works and rarely heard music.   

 

Ukrainian-born Mark Kadin is the Music Director of the Querétaro Philharmonic since 2023, an orchestra with great tradition in Mexico now in its 33rd season. Previously, Mark was Chief Conductor of the Bulgarian National Radio Symphony Orchestra (2017 – 2023), where he solidified the orchestra’s status as one of the nation’s most enduring and innovative, and reinvigorated its Bulgarian presence through regular touring programs. He earned critical acclaim for bold and adventurous programming and numerous recordings, including works by composers of the Bulgarian Avant Garde.

He attracted considerable attention outside the country with broadcasts on Deutschlandradio, BBC, Swedish and Danish Radio, Portuguese National and Spanish National Radio and Musiq 3 (Belgium). The first and only international artist to receive the Great Award of the Bulgarian National Radio for creative contribution to the development of the BNR Symphony, Mark has also been honored with the National Award Crystal Lyra for achievements in the Bulgarian performing art.

“It sounded somewhat confessional in the conductor's reading - like a personal revelation, a personal pain, but he maintained a good distance, with a sufficiently restrained emotional discipline which produced an even more engaging awareness.”
