“One of the brightest lights to shine through of late has been Robert Trevino… 

exquisitely rendered… frankly gorgeous conducting.” 

(New York Times, 2024) 

Robert Trevino has emerged as one of the most exciting conductors of the  younger generation performing today. He serves as Principal Guest Conductor of the Orchestra  Sinfonica Nazionale della RAI and was Chief Conductor of the Basque National Orchestra from 2017- 2025. He was also Chief Conductor of the Malmo Symphony Orchestra 2019-2021 and has taken many  orchestras on international tours, including, among others, Germany, Austria, France and Italy. Starting  with the 2026/27 season he assumes the position of Principal Conductor of George Enescu Philharmonic  Orchestra. 

In 2026/27 Robert Trevino will return to Orchestra della Svizzera italiana, Orchestra Philharmonique de  Strasbourg, Sinfonieorchester Basel, and Toscanini Orchestra. Other concert activities will take him to Baltic Sea Philharmonic, Aarhus Symphony Orchestra, Belgrade Philharmonic, Sofia Philharmonic,  Fondazione Haydn di Bolzano, among others, as well as to Opéra de Liège (Capriccio). 

Other orchestras Robert Trevino has conducted include, among others, the London Philharmonic,  London Symphony Orchestra, City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, Royal Philharmonic Orchestra,  Münchner Philharmoniker, Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin, Gewandhausorchester Leipzig, MDR Sinfonieorchester Leipzig, SWR Sinfonieorchester Stuttgart, Dresdner Philharmonie, Duisburger  Philharmoniker, Bamberger Symphoniker, Orchestre de Paris, Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio  France, Orchestre national du Capitole de Toulouse, Orchestre dell’ Accademia Nazionale di Santa  Cecilia, Filarmonica della Scala, Tonhalle Orchester Zürich and Helsinki Philharmonic. He has also  conducted a wide variety of orchestras in North America – among them the major orchestras of  Cleveland, Cincinnati, Baltimore and San Francisco – as well as the São Paulo Symphony, NHK  Symphony, Tokyo Philharmonic, Yomiuri Nippon Symphony Tokyo, Tokyo Metropolitan Symphony  Orchestra and Osaka Philharmonic Orchestra as well as St. Petersburg Philharmonic. He has led  orchestras at many leading festivals, among them Mahler Festival Leipzig, Enescu Festival, Milan  Mahler Festival and Puccini Festival. Trevino’s opera work has included productions at Washington  National Opera as well as recent productions at Opernhaus Zürich (Turandot) and La Fenice (Don  Giovanni). 

His recording contract with Ondine resulted in a complete Beethoven symphonies cycle, two Ravel  albums, a Rautavaara album and “Americascapes” – a widely acclaimed survey of little-known  American masterpieces, that won ‘Best Recording of 2021’ from Presto Music and was shortlisted for  a Gramophone Award. “Americascapes 2 – American Opus” was released in late 2024. A cycle of Bruch  symphonies with the Bamberger Symphoniker was released by CPO, now considered the modern  reference recording.
