Victor Jacob
Conductor
Biography
Originally trained as a singer, Victor Jacob graduated from the Royal Academy of Music in London, where he studied with Sian Edwards. He also studied under Alain Altinoglu at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris.
Victor Jacob received the Victoire de la Musique award for Best New Conductor in 2023 and a Special Prize at the Besançon International Competition for Young Conductors in 2019.
Since then, he has been invited to conduct major orchestras in France — including the Orchestre National de Lyon, Orchestre Philharmonique de Marseille, Orchestre National de Montpellier, and Orchestre National de Lille — as well as internationally, with ensembles such as the Hong Kong Philharmonic Orchestra, Tonkünstler-Orchester, Belgian National Orchestra, Deutsche Radio Philharmonie Saarbrücken Kaiserslautern, Orchestre Philharmonique Royal de Liège, Orquesta Sinfónica Simón Bolívar of Venezuela, and the Moscow State Symphony Orchestra.
Highlights of the 2026/27 season include his debuts with the Orchestre national de Lorraine and alongside the Diotima Quartet, conducting Rossini’s The Barber of Seville in Versailles, and a 12-concert tour across Spain and France with the American soprano Nadine Sierra.
Since the creation of the ADO programme at the Paris Opera Academy in 2023, Victor Jacob has served as Music Director of its two orchestras. The 2026 season marks his final year in this role.
