Sabine Devieilhe is one of the most in-demand artists in France and abroad, sought for her expansive repertoire that ranges from ancient to contemporary music.

French pianist and recitalist Mathieu Pordoy has emerged as one of the most promising coaches of his generation. Internationally acclaimed, he has coached at the most prominent opera houses, including the Vienna State Opera (the complete version of Don Carlos), Paris Opera (Les Huguenots), and Opernhaus Zürich (Les contes d’Hoffmann). He also has given master classes at the Mariinsky Academy of Young Opera Singers and—at the invitation of Joan Dornemann—held staff positions with the Canadian Vocal Arts Institute in Montreal and International Vocal Arts Institute in Israel.

As a specialist in French opera, Mr. Pordoy is regularly invited to such opera houses as the Opéra-Comique in Paris, Opéra de Monte-Carlo, Grand-Théâtre de Luxembourg, Théatre Royal de la Monnaie in Brussels, and Théâtre du Capitole de Toulouse.

Since 2008, Mr. Pordoy has collaborated on productions every summer with the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence and served as coach for the festival’s young artists’ academy. As a vocal coach and accompanist, he has served on the music staffs of the Théâtre des Champs- Élysées (Tristan und Isolde, Pelléas et Mélisande, Il barbiere di Siviglia); Auditorio de Tenerife (Werther); Chorégies d’Orange (Il barbiere di Siviglia, Carmen); Oper Köln (Benvenuto Cellini, L’enfant et les sortilèges, L’heure espagnole); Teatro Municipal de Santiago (La damnation de Faust); and others. Mr. Pordoy has collaborated with such conductors as Fabio Luisi, Gianluigi Gelmetti, Gianandrea Noseda, Daniele Gatti, François-Xavier Roth, Mikko Franck, and Alain Altinoglu. He has given recitals and concerts at the Edinburgh International Festival, Palais Garnier, Musée d’Orsay, and Les Musicales du Luberon, among other venues and festivals.

This season, Mr. Pordoy makes a double debut at Carnegie Hall in Berlioz’s Lélio with Sir John Eliot Gardiner and in recital with Sabine Devieilhe. He also begins a series of recitals throughout Europe with American tenor Michael Spyres.

Mr. Pordoy graduated with honors from the Paris Conservatoire, where he taught from 2006 to 2011.
