Nathalie Stutzmann is the Music Director of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra.

The current season includes several notable debuts including Czech Philharmonic, Boston Symphony, Tonhalle Orchestra Zurich and her conducting debut at the Musikverein with Wiener Symphoniker; and also features returns to the New York Philharmonic with two programmes as their Featured Artist, Munich Philharmonic, Orchestre de Paris and Philadelphia Orchestra.

Boston Symphony Orchestra debut
Symphony Hall BostonFeb 2025Stravinsky's 1919 Suite from The Firebird provided a stunning mix of focused, quiet intensity and pummeling energy. It's songful moments beguiled: the various solos in “The Princesses’ Round Dance” were enchanting, the “Lullaby” was beautifully shaped, and the noble melodic lines of the “Finale” soared. At the same time, its vigorous spots—be they light-footed (“The Firebird and its Dance”) or slashing (“Infernal Dance”)—were both thrillingly full-bodied and precisely balanced.

To watch Stutzmann is to experience in Ravel’s Alborada del gracioso a canvas drawn before your own eyes in Mediterranean colors, flamenco outlines, jocular play, sensual signaling, all unveiled by way of an orchestra that seems to be able to do just about everything.
