Conductor

"A dedicated worker with a sense for the subtleties of music: Jesús Ortega Martínez

"Performing Haydn's great Symphony No. 103 with such dedication was an achievement of conductor Jesús Ortega Martínez. He motivated, encouraged, soothed, and led the orchestra to outstanding performance."

"It was an exceptionally refined performance." (Beethoven: Symphony No. 1)

"Under the direction of Jesús Ortega Martínez, there was a conductor who truly understood the greatness and significance of Joseph Haydn. He conducted the entire Symphony No. 103 with remarkable attention to detail, while also bringing out contrasts in a way that is rarely heard.

It is about musical greatness. Franz Schubert's third symphony captivated in the performance by the Sinfonietta Dachau under the direction of its young conductor Jesús Ortega Martínez. [...] Outstanding!"
