Hiroyuki Iwaki

Hiroyuki Iwaki (1932–2006) was a Japanese conductor who played a major role in the development of Japan’s postwar orchestral culture. He conducted widely in Japan and internationally and served as music director of several orchestras, including the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra (1974–1997). Known for his energetic style and wide repertoire, Iwaki was particularly active in promoting contemporary music and works by Japanese composers while also conducting the major symphonic repertoire.
