This season will mark his debuts with the Essener Philharmoniker, in the theatres of Piacenza and Modena, at Opera Ballet Vlaanderen and at the Tiroler Festspiele Erl, alongside his chief conductor commitments at the Hofer Symphoniker and Symfonieorkest Vlaanderen.

Following his successful debut in October 2025 with Dvořák’s Symphony No. 7, he was immediately reinvited to the current season and will conduct the BBC Symphony Orchestra for another studio concert on April 28 at 14:30 in the Maida Vale Studios.

From 23 to 30 November, Martijn led six performances of La Bohème in the award-winning production by Graham Vick at the Teatro Comunale Bologna. His Puccini debut received overwhelming reviews from the international opera press. The production starred Stefan Pop, Karen Gardaazabal, Vittorio Prato and Giuliana Gianfaldoni singing the main roles.

From May 25th to June 1st, Martijn conducted five performances of Così fan tutte at the Teatro Comunale Bologna, concluding the Mozart–Da Ponte trilogy he began in 2023. Presented at the Comunale Nouveau, the production, staged by Alessandro Talevi, was met with public and critical acclaim. The press unanimously praised his conducting for its elegance, clarity, and stylistic finesse.
