Welcome to Patrick Davin!


We are very pleased to welcome to our list of artists the conductor Patrick Davin!

Equally at home in contemporary as in classical and romantic repertoires, he has made himself a name both in the symphonic and lyric fields. Being a former student of Pierre Boulez and Peter Eötvös, he has been frequently asked to premiere works by composers such as Philippe Boesmans, Luc Brewaeys, Bruno Mantovani, Jacqueline Fontyn, Charles Chaynes, Vinko Globokar, Murray Schafer, Conlon Nancarrow, Michael Levinas, Henri and Denis Pousseur, Xavier Dayer, James Dillon, Jean-Luc Hervé, Jean-Yves Bosseur, Kris Defoort and Marco Stroppa.

Other career highlights included : his recent debut (october 2018) at Deutsche Oper Berlin, where he replaced ad hoc Damnation de Faust (Berlioz) ; Louise (Charpentier) and Damnation de Faust at the Paris Opera House Bastille ; La muette de Portici and Le domino noir, both by Daniel F.E. Auber, at Opéra Comique Paris ; the world premieres of Au monde and Pinocchio (Boesmans) both directed by Joël Pommerat at ROH La Monnaie ; Le Nozze di Figaro, Pénélope (Fauré) directed by Olivier Py and Dr Atomic (Adams), directed by Lucinda Childs, at the Opera House of Strasbourg.

After having recently conducted the world premiere of Pierre Bartholomée’s opera Nous sommes éternels at the Opera House of Metz, Patrick Davin joins again ROH Liège for Gounod's Faust, before Entführung aus dem Serail at Monte-Carlo’s Opera House.
