🎁 As a conductor of opera, ballet, and music theater, Steven Lipsitt has collaborated with Scottish Opera, Boston Lyric Opera, English National Opera, Boston Ballet, St. Louis Ballet, the Boston Music Theater Project, Boston Conservatory Opera Theatre, and Opera-at-Longy. He has worked with directors Robert Carsen, James Hammerstein, and Gerald Gutierrez, and choreographers Peter Martins and Daniel Pelzig. He conducted twenty performances of Carousel at the Kennedy Center Opera House with actors Faith Prince, Tom Wopat, and John Spencer.

Conductor Steven Lipsitt is widely recognized for his ability to combine precision and passion, intelligence and invigoration. First Prize Laureate of the inaugural “Dimitris Mitropoulos” International Conducting Competition in November 1996 (where the field included prizewinners from all the major European and Asian competitions), Steven Lipsitt made his Russian debut with the St. Petersburg Philharmonic in 1997, and has been guest conductor of orchestras in North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. Foreign critics have hailed his “exalted and well-structured interpretations” (Le Monde de la Musique, Paris) and “soaring conductor-debut” (Musik & Theater, Zurich) and praised his “technically and expressively balanced interpretations” (Adesmeftos Typos, Athens), observing that “[his] technical precision makes possible the realization of his expressive framework” (Estia, Athens) and “the drama and the familiar playful Mozartean mood were combined in ideal proportions” (Aygi, Athens).
