Conductor Daniel Harding was a prodigy, earning worldwide renown while still in his teens and winning acclaim for unexpected appearances as a substitute. His early record of success continues in adulthood, with major conducting positions and a large catalog of recordings. He has had a long tenure with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and has appeared as a guest with various major orchestras. Harding's recording catalog includes a 2025 release with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, backing violinist Renaud Capuçon in concertos by Sibelius and Barber.
Harding was born in Oxford on August 31, 1975. Taking recorder lessons as a child, he attended Chetham's School of Music as a trumpeter and joined Britain's National Youth Orchestra at 13. The following year, Harding set his sights on a career as a conductor. He assembled an orchestra from among his fellow students, and when he was 17, he conducted them in Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire, not a simple score for any conductor. The performance went off well, and Harding brashly sent a tape to famed conductor Simon Rattle. Although at first, by his own testimony, Rattle thought Harding was crazy, but went to see a performance by the ambitious youngster and was favorably impressed. Harding became Rattle's assistant at the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and made his debut in 1994 with that orchestra. Word got around about the precocious conductor's talents. He was hired by composer Hans Werner Henze to assist with preparations for the Munich Biennial Festival, and he took a conducting master class with Pierre Boulez.
For the 1995-1996 season, he became the assistant conductor of the legendary Berlin Philharmonic under Claudio Abbado. When scheduled conductor Franz Welser-Möst fell ill, Harding stepped in without rehearsal to lead the orchestra in a difficult program of music by Berlioz, Brahms, and Dvořák, earning critical acclaim and international attention. He became the youngest conductor ever to lead a BBC Proms Concert in 1996, and the following year, his career was launched as he took on conducting positions at the Trondheim Symphony Orchestra in Norway and the Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie in Bremen, Germany. Leaving the latter group in 2003, he was appointed principal guest conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra the following year. Harding became the principal conductor of the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra in 2007, remaining in that position until 2025. He appeared on the album Mark-Anthony Turnage: Your Rockaby on the Argo label in 2015.
He also held chief conductor positions with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra from 2003 to 2011 (staying on as laureate) and with the Orchestre de Paris from 2015 to 2018. Harding held a variety of major guest conducting positions not only with orchestras but also at opera houses, including Italy's La Scala. Harding has recorded prolifically with almost all of the orchestras with which he has been associated, issuing albums on Virgin, EMI, Harmonia Mundi (with which he has been closely associated since the early 2010s), and Warner Classics. In 2020, he led the Swedish Radio Symphony in performances of Schoenberg's Violin Concerto and Verklärte Nacht, featuring violinist Isabelle Faust. His recordings in the 2020s have mixed popular outings, such as a year as head of the Sommernachtskonzert in Vienna in 2021, with more unusual fare, such as the 2023 album Nicholas Maw: Dance Scenes. In 2024, he became the music director of the Orchestra dell'Accademia Nazionale di Santa Cecilia in Rome. Among his many recordings of the 2020s was a 2025 outing with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, backing violinist Renaud Capuçon in concertos by Sibelius and Barber.
