In addition to his symphonic work, Adrien Perruchon maintains a strong operatic presence. In the 2025/26 season, he will debut at the Daegu Opera House with Verdi’s “Il trovatore” and at the Opéra de Tours with Donizetti’s “La Fille du regiment”. He has conducted multiple productions at the Komische Oper Berlin, including Offenbach’s “Les Brigands”, “Robinson Crusoé” and “La Belle Hélène”, establishing a lasting collaboration with the house.
Other notable opera engagements include Barrie Kosky’s acclaimed production of “Orpheus in the Underworld” at Deutsche Oper am Rhein, Laurent Pelly’s Le roi Carotte at Opéra National de Lyon, and Bizet’s “Carmen” in a new production by Florentine Klepper at Opéra de Dijon. He has also conducted Fidelio at both Opéra de Dijon and the Music in PyeongChang Festival, “Benvenuto Cellini”, “La Bohème”, “Don Giovanni”, as well as Ravel’s double bill “L’Heure Espagnole / L’Enfant et les Sortilèges” at Oper Köln.

Press
"The evening, which was enthusiastically celebrated by the audience, ended with shimmering, ingeniously mixed timbres, just like a typical Ravel."
Rheinische Post, Gert Holtmeyer, 12.01.2020
"Perruchon has an effortless, collected and almost weightless-looking striking technique."
Westdeutsche Zeitung, Christian Oscar Gazsi Laki, 12.01.2020
"He directs Bizet as Debussy or Ravel. It's always seductive, accomplished, refined, precise and vigorous. The orchestra is sumptuous and homogeneous, it sounds round, delicate as flamboyant"
Yvan Beuvard, forumopera.com, 17.05.2019
