About Emmanuelle

Music & Artistic Director, Le Concert d'Astrée

Emmanuelle Haïm is internationally acclaimed as a performer and champion of the Baroque repertoire, both as a conductor and keyboard player. Her long collaboration with the Los Angeles Philharmonic is marked by a three year partnership with them, as Artistic Collaborator.

She has also developed a strong relationship with the Berliner Philharmoniker, whom she has conducted regularly over many years and to whom she returns this season. Other major orchestras she has collaborated with include the Concertgebouw Orchestra, Symphonieorchester des Bayerischen Rundfunks, London Symphony Orchestra, Leipzig Gewandhaus, New York Philharmonic and the Wiener Philharmoniker, with performances in Vienna and at the Lucerne Festival.

Emmanuelle founded Le Concert d’Astrée in 2000. During the 26/27 season they will join forces with the LA Philharmonic, where Emmanuelle holds her position as Artistic Collaborator, for the second edition of the baroque Festival Los Angeles. They will also perform new productions of Alcina (Lille), and perform Handel’s Messiah in Paris, Lyon, Barcelona, Madrid, LA, and at the Salzburg Easter Festival alongside the Berliner Philharmoniker.

  • Rameau's Platee

    Zurich
    Dec 2023

    • Emmanuelle Haïm displays her French baroque expertise beautifully. She conducts the reliably brilliant La Scintilla orchestra.

    • Emmanuelle Haïm, who has made her mark on the baroque scene for over twenty years with her ensemble Le Concert d'Astrée, transforms Rameau's score into a firework display. Under her direction (she conducts from the baton), the Orchestre La Scintilla sounds simply spellbinding on every level. *****

  • Handel Apollo e Dafne

    Walt Disney Concert Hall
    Jan 2020

    • …given a performance of spectacular musical vitality, one that mixed humor with outrage, one from a woman’s point of view, Haïm’s “Apollo e Dafne” took on a revelatory new aspect… Though conducting from the harpsichord, Haïm was mostly on her feet, in vivid contact with a small orchestra and bringing her unique combination of modern-day fire and voluptuousness to Handel.

  • Handel and Rameau with the Concertgebouw Orchestra

    Concertgebouw Amsterdam
    Apr 2024

    • Amidst all these volcanic eruptions and melancholy, the musicians of the Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra maintain the sound and dynamic balance at all times. Thanks to the knowledge and experience of Emmanuelle Haïm and the vocal mastery of Lenneke Ruiten, it becomes a successful musical meeting of the Italian and French styles, which prove equally familiar not only to Handel but also to all the performers.
