名人坊【不断创造“首次”的华裔女指挥家--张弦】出生于丹东的一个艺术家庭，张弦三岁开始学习钢琴，后考入中央音乐学院指挥系，年仅20岁时，她成功执棒中央歌剧院《费加罗的婚礼》的演出，从此开启她指挥的职业生涯。1988年赴美深造，2002年她从全世界362位高水平选手中脱颖而出，一举摘得马泽尔-维拉尔国际指挥大赛的头奖，并随即获任命为纽约爱乐乐团助理指挥，此后更晋升为乐团副指挥，并成为乐团首位“托斯卡尼尼奖”荣誉和奖金获得者。2015年11月，张弦被任命为有近百年历史的新泽西交响乐团的音乐总监，为期四年，短短半个月后，出任英国BBC威尔士国家管弦乐团与合唱团首席客座指挥，这将是BBC旗下交响乐团有史以来的首位女性音乐总监，作为世界上为数不多的女指挥，她创造了很多"第一次"，不仅是历史上首位被任命为意大利米兰朱塞佩·威尔第交响乐团音乐总监的女性，同时，在德累斯顿国家歌剧院管弦乐团超过400年的历史中，她更是首位登上其主厅的女性指挥家，她是欧洲交响乐坛不断刷新“首次”纪录的女指挥家，是“指挥界冉冉升起的耀眼之星”！“小个头”、“亚洲面孔”、“女性”，指挥界的“天花板”恰恰是她标志性的指挥台。邂逅这位女指挥，就在本周17:30的名人坊，不见不散。
