Berlin 20th October 2012
I know Léonard Ganvert since January 2011 when he came to assist me in I Puritani by Bellini at the Grand Théâtre de Genève (Switzerland). Since we worked again together for the reopening of the Lausanne Opera House (Donizetti’s Elisir d’Amore) […] and in the Wiener Staatsoper (Rossini’s new production of La Cenerentola in January 2013).
[…]
Consciencious observer, respectfull and eager for knowledge instrumentalists, singers and other participants in the show. He is very attentive to all the aspects of the production.
He knows how to establish a good relationship with everyone, he attends all the rehearsals, in remplacing me when necessary, or conducting himself one of the rehearsals taking place concurrently.
He knows how to answer technical and musical questions by artists, to provide objective and constructive critics on what he sees and hears. He has a very good knowledge of scores and he is at ease for rehearsals both with piano or orchestra.
We worked together in confidence and in harmony.
I support Léonard and encourage him in his early career.

After the six performances in September_October 2022, at the Opéra de Nice Côte d'Azur (France):
“Excellent evening of contemporary classical dance whose clarity and sensuality of the two writings (Guérin / Araiz) ensure unity while approaching each according to their temperament, the magic of amorous fusions; demonic and fantastic with Julien GUÉRIN, one of our most inspired current choreographers; wild, twilight, sensual in Oscar ARAIZ whose linear elegance underlines how Rachninov's music is suitable for the explanation and sublimation of bodily attractions.
[...] This is all the more noticeable thanks to the excellent performance of the Orchestra, again under the lively and detailed baton of Léonard Ganvert. »

After the seven performances in December 2019, at the Opéra de Nice Côte d'Azur (France):
"Near the Mediterranean, the sea is not the only place to dance.
Éric Vu-An brings together Robbins and Gene Kelly in Nice.
At the Nice ballet, Éic Vu-An gathered Jerome Robbins' En sol, on the eponymous concerto by Ravel and in the sets of Erté, and Pas de dieux by Gene Kelly on the Concerto in fa by Gershwin and in the wonderful sets by André François. And it was swinging funny! Especially since the dancers were great. The Cubans Luis Valle and Marlen Fuerte Castro, sublime in the Adagio Assai […] Luis Valle and Veronica Colomba in Zeus and Aphrodite led this Pas de dieux to play. There was joy and style, and; in the pit, the Nice Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Léonard Ganvert added more. Along the clear gulfs, at Christmas, it was not only the sea that we saw dancing ...

"Dear Sir,
I had the pleasure of attending the "general" of Norma last Thursday, as well as the "first" Saturday night.
The general was a superb "masterclass" of opera direction in concert.
It is rare to be able to be so close, physically but intellectually, to all these instrumentalists, singers and choristers engaged and passionate about their art under the guidance of their attentive and demanding leader.
It was a great moment of sharing for me.
As for the evening of Saturday, it filled me is saying little. The work upstream will really bear fruit ..."

Cordially"
