Pinchas Steinberg returns to the Theatre du Capitole in Toulouse to conduct a new production of  Richard Strauss' Salomé

Mr. Steinberg has been especially busy this season conducting three productions at the Theatre du Capitole: the opening opera season with Enescu’s Oedipe; he returned in January 2009 to conduct Giordano’s Andrea Chenier, and he conducts in May a new production of Strauss’ Salomé. Mr. Steinberg is particularly renowned as a specialist in Richard Strauss music. His recording of Die schweigsame Frau was described by Robert Levine of Classic Today as “ an absolute must ....”.

As a regular guest of the Orchestra Nazionale dell'Accademia di Santa Cecilia, in March Mr. Steinberg has conducted 3 concerts in Rome. Program included the only Beethoven’s oratorio Christus am Oelberg and blew away preconceptions of this piece as anything less than a masterpiece. As critics wrote, Mr. Steinberg conducted a performance of tremendous emotional impact.
Following his successful collaboration with the Cleveland Orchestra, on April 3 and 4 Mr. Steinberg returned to the United States for the second time this year to perform with the Orchestra in Miami, earning outstanding reviews (please see press quotes).
