Why did you choose Wagner's music for your inaugural concert at the head of the Orchestre national d'Île-de-France and to start your musical adventure with the musicians? – Although I have many repertoire interests, Wagner is one of the composers closest to my heart. It was his music that revealed to me that I wanted to dedicate my life to music. And given the context of the Orchestre national d'Île-de-France's rich history and repertoire, Wagner seemed like the boldest, strongest step that we could take together on this new journey of ours.

Orchestre national d'le-de-France

Back in 2016, Case made a highly acclaimed German debut with the Württembergisches Kammerorchester Heilbronn for the final subscription performance of the 15/16 concert season. Heilbronner Stimme commented Precision, balance, and an almost weightless sound dominated the concert from the first bar…Mozart’s Linz Symphony was like a sun-lit wander along an alpine way. Following second return to the orchestra conducting Beethoven’s 1st Symphony in Stuttgart’s Liederhalle, it was announced at the press conference in Heilbronn in July 2017 that Case Scaglione had been unanimously elected as the orchestra’s Chief Conductor effective from the 2018-19 season.

In the current and upcoming seasons, the theme of Transformation is the major thematic focus and to this end some of the programme highlights featuring in live performance are Transfigured Night by Arnold Schoenberg, Metamorphosen by Richard Strauss as well as a recording of the Six Symphonies (after Ovid’s Metamorphoses), by Carl Ditters von Dittersdorf. Further recording plans with Württembergisches Kammerorchester Heilbronn include an all-Copland CD with clarinetist Sebastian Manz performing the clarinet concerto.

Following a two-week tour of d’île de France region back in 2016, Case’s debut with Orchestre national d'Île de France was a huge success leading to an instant re-invitation to conduct the orchestra in the Philharmonie de Paris for the opening of 17/18 season. Following a second collaboration with the orchestra, it was announced that Case had been elected as the orchestra’s designate Music Director from the 19/ 20 season.
