Mazzola in Paris

Salle Pleyel

At the head of the orchestra - Mazzola delivered all the tenderness and passion required.

Laurent Vilarem
Clearly a great musical and human history has begun between Enrique Mazzola and ONDIF: invaluable training in musical life that cannot be repeated enough. Alain Cochard

Don Pasquale

Theatre des Champs Elysées

"Because under the baton of the very wise, very lively and bright, energetic, but creamy Enrique Mazzola, the Orchestra National de France paid great attention to all the subtleties in the instrumental writing of Donizetti, which was voiced and expressed freely."

AltaMusic, Gerard Mannoni

OAE Debut

Purcell Room

"Cherubini’s Medée is a piece that some of our more enterprising opera companies should think about rediscovering. Enrique Mazzola, an OAE debutant with flair (and a sense of fun), conducted its fizzing overture with verve, and the French mezzo-soprano Stephanie d’Oustrac followed it with a keenly Classical take on this heroine’s Greek tragedy"
