Pierre Dumoussaud is a dynamic French conductor known for breathing fresh life into operatic and symphonic works, particularly from the Romantic and Belle Époque eras. A champion of French repertoire, he’s become a go-to interpreter for composers like Bizet, Offenbach, and Debussy, as heard in his vibrant recordings of *Carmen* highlights and *Pelléas et Mélisande*. As music director of the Opéra National de Bordeaux and a frequent collaborator with European orchestras, Dumoussaud balances historical sensitivity with theatrical flair, whether reviving forgotten gems like Messager’s *Les P’tites Michu* or exploring wartime themes in projects like *Élégies*. His albums, including the cheekily titled *So Romantique!* and adventurous *Le voyage dans la lune*, showcase his knack for making classical storytelling feel both grand and relatable, often highlighting vocalists who share his passion for dramatic nuance.
