Bio

Marc Minkowski is a French conductor and bassoonist born in Paris in 1962. He founded the period-instrument ensemble Les Musiciens du Louvre in 1982, which quickly became recognized for its performances of Baroque and Classical repertoire. Minkowski is noted for his work in opera, particularly French and German works from the 17th to 19th centuries, and has conducted at major houses including the Salzburg Festival and the Metropolitan Opera. His recordings have received critical acclaim for their historically informed approach and attention to stylistic detail.
