Monday, February 23, 1998 Honolulu Symphony Violinist Sarah Chang Kansas symphony By Tim Ryan Star-Bulletin HONOLULU Symphony musical director and conductor Sam Wong will leave the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra where he has also been been musical director-conductor for seven years. Wong, who is in the third and final year of his contract with the Honolulu Symphony, also is being sought by at least one other major U.S. orchestra, the Kansas City Symphony. Wong confirmed that he has communicated with the Kansas group but declined further comment. He said, however, that he has no intention "whatsoever" of leaving Hawaii when his contract expires. "I'm in Honolulu to stay for well beyond a decade," Wong said last week in a telephone interview from his New York City home. "I love it there." Wong who will leave the Ann Arbor post after its 1998-99 season, said it was "simply time to move on" from that city. "I'm doing a lot of guest conducting in Europe, Asia, New Zealand and Australia and I want to be available to take advantage of these opportunities," he said. This year, Wong will be conducting the Hong Kong Philharmonic for the fourth time, then spending two weeks with the Auckland Philharmonia. He also will travel the Far East this summer with the New York Philharmonic, and work with various Australia symphonies. Next week, he will go to Spain to conduct and expects at least two more European performances in 1998.
