“Pablo Heras-Casado made a strong impression as guest conductor of the SWR Symphony Orchestra in Stuttgart’s Liederhalle with a performance of Anton Bruckner’s Mass in F minor characterized by sharp contrasts.”

Waldemar Kamer
Der Opernfreund

“The highlight of the evening for me was the conducting of Pablo Heras-Casado and the orchestra of the Opéra de Paris. The Spaniard was clearly not conducting his first “Ring” (that was in Madrid in 2018) and made such a good impression last summer in Bayreuth with his “Tristan” that he is apparently already booked there for the “Ring” in 2028. He conducted confidently with great elegance, springy and light, cleverly structured, never overpowering, but with great transparency and allowed the orchestra – with whom he obviously gets on well – to blossom in places. Most impressive for me were the wind instruments, especially the horns. Fifteen years ago, they were still the Achilles heel of the orchestra in Philipp Jordan’s first “Rheingold” and fumbled some of the effects back then. But now they played flawlessly, even with nuances that can be compared to those of the Vienna Philharmonic. Truly world-class level. So of course you want to hear what’s still to come…“

“Heras-Casado, an agile Spanish conductor with a keen eye for expression, who missed nothing and left nothing to chance, exposed them. The result was a polished, magnificent interpretation between the poles of emphasis and idyll. Strings, woodwinds, brass, timpani: excellent.“
