This week New York Public Radio (NYPR) announced that Edward Yim has been named Chief Content Officer for WQXR, New York City’s classical music station. Yim will be responsible for developing and implementing a strategic vision that helps WQXR reach a broader, more inclusive audience, drives digital innovation, bolsters WQXR’s role in New York City’s arts and culture ecosystem, and increases WQXR’s relevance and service to the city’s communities.
Yim brings over two decades of experience at several of the country’s premier music institutions, including American Composers Orchestra (ACO), to WQXR. Prior to ACO where he felt "most at home," Yim held senior positions at several of the nation’s most significant music institutions, including the New York Philharmonic, New York City Opera, IMG Artists, and The Los Angeles Philharmonic Association.
