February 2008: Two Halls, Two Orchestras, Two Rave Reviews
February was a busy month for Emmanuel Villaume in New York with performances at both the Metropolitan Opera and Avery Fisher Hall. His "Carmen" at the Met with Olga Borodina and Marcelo Alvarez was met with critical acclaim by the New York Times, as was his concert at Avery Fisher Hall with the Juilliard Orchestra in a program of Strauss, Wallin, Berlioz and Debussy. See "In the Press" for reviews.

Emmanuel Villaume opened the Washington National Opera's 2007/2008 season with an interpretation of "La Boheme" that "did full justice to Puccini's brilliant score" (Baltimore Sun). His exemplary work with the orchestra was praised by every major journal covering the nine performances.
