Planning de la tournée de l'artiste Marc Minkowski
Conductor

Marc Minkowski

Marc Minkowski is an eminent French conductor, born in Paris in 1962, renowned for his masterly interpretations of French Baroque works. 

From an early age, he stood out for his exceptional talent and, at just 19, founded the ensemble Les Musiciens du Louvre. Under his visionary direction, this ensemble became a pillar of the baroque music revival, exploring the French repertoire in depth while opening up to works by Handel. Minkowski subsequently expanded his repertoire to include Mozart, Rossini, Offenbach and even Wagner. 

His successful international career has taken him to the world's greatest musical institutions, where he is renowned for his precision, energy and ability to reveal the subtleties of the works he conducts. His rich and varied discography has been acclaimed and awarded many prestigious prizes. At the same time, Minkowski devotes himself to education, leading masterclasses and sharing his knowledge with the new generation of musicians, while at the same time engaging in initiatives to promote classical music to the general public.

Biography

Marc Minkowski comes from a scientific, musical and literary family with multiple origins. A trained bassoonist, he began conducting at a very young age, receiving instruction from Charles Bruck at the Pierre Monteux Memorial School in the United States.

He regularly performs in Paris (Opéra National de Paris, Théâtre du Châtelet and Opéra Comique), at the Royal Opera House in London (Covent Garden), at the Teatro alla Scala in Milan, and at the Staatsoper in Berlin.

At the invitation of Gerard Mortier, he made his debut in Salzburg in 1997 (The Abduction from the Seraglio, Die Fledermaus, Mitridate, Così fan tutte, Lucio Silla and in 2019/2020 a first collaboration with Bob Wilson for The Messiah).
