Conducting Wagner’s Tristan and Isolde with the @philorch is equal parts exhilarating and heart-wrenching—as only a great opera can do. Rehearsing the Holztrompete solo with Associate Principal Trumpet Jeffrey Curnow was a joyful moment: an example of the spirit this orchestra brings to the piece!
Rehearsals are in full swing with the Philadelphia Orchestra for Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde. Trust me when I say that it is absolutely EPIC! Only one performance left on June 8. See you there!
Rehearsing Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde with the Philadelphia Orchestra has been extraordinary. Every detail—from articulation to pacing to emotional nuance—builds toward an unforgettable experience. Honored to perform the full opera for the first time with these incredible musicians.
Making my debut with Wagner's Tristan und Isolde—a dream since my college days! Performing with Stuart Skelton, Nina Stemme & the Philadelphia Orchestra is a dream come true. Tristan und Isolde, once a dream, is now part of my story.
From the stage to the studio to home :-)

What a gift to be part of MAESTRO, to honor Leonard Bernstein’s legacy — and now, to unbox this GRAMMY for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media, released on Deutsche Grammaphon.

Une promenade de printemps à Montréal avec mon beau, recharging before more nights of magic at the Metropolitan Opera! 🌸🍃🦦👨🏼‍🤝‍👨🏽💓
The opening of Salome at the Met is one I’ll remember for the rest of my life. This score means so much to me, and sharing it with this orchestra, on this stage, with this cast… it was a true privilege. Bravi to Elza van den Heever, Peter Mattei, Claus Guth, and the entire incredible cast and team.
We mourn the passing of Pope Francis. His life was a testament to compassion and unity. I’m grateful for the moment I performed with the Philadelphia Orchestra during his 2015 visit to Philadelphia. He championed the dignity of every soul and leaves a legacy of love. May we carry his light forward.
J’ai découvert l’univers de l’OM il y a 25 ans et ce voyage a été rempli de rencontres inoubliables, de concerts magiques, de moments qui redonnent foi en l’humanité. Avec cette saison 25-26, je vous invite à entrer dans l’univers OM à votre tour! Vous allez y découvrir un monde d’une beauté inouïe!
Spring’s in session in the Big Apple ! 🪻🫧

@nezetseguin.bsky.social led three thrilling performances of Mahler’s Sixth Symphony this past weekend! From the march in A minor in the first movement to the thunderous blows of the hammer of fate, it felt like a cathartic release of emotion in Marian Anderson Hall. #classical
