Tosca - Opera de Nantes 

Saluons de la même façon, l'excellente prestation des instrumentistes de l'Orchestre national des Pays de la Loire qui sous la baguette de Jean-Yves Ossonce (actuel chef du Symphonique Région Centre-Tours), ont su exprimer les convulsions passionnelles de la partition, ses respirations comme ses climats poétiques (dont déjà cité, un remarquable intermède au début du III), sans maniérisme ni pathos décoratif. Une vraie direction pour une mise en scène travaillée, approfondie, des plus pertinentes (Alexandre Pham - Classique News.com - septembre 2008)

Lucia di Lammermoor-  San Francisco Opera

"Conductor Jean-Yves Ossonce ... was the primary force contributing to the musical effectiveness of the performance. Mo. Ossonce kept his tempos lilting, never allowing Donizetti's continuum to touch ground, with ample license given to fine flights of horn, harp, flute, clarinet and of course
voice. This French conductor placed no barrier before the stage (unlike much of the conducting in the recent Das Rheingold) participating wholeheartedly with the lyricism of his stage to the degree that his presence melded itself into that of the singers."
FestivalTour.org, Michael Milenski

"Credit conductor Jean-Yves Ossonce for staying atop the score, never letting it drag or turning it into an organ-grinder muddle of sweet but boring melodies."
The Vacaville Reporter, 25 June 2008, Richard Bammer

"Jean-Yves Ossonce (a US debut) conducts with enlightened vigour..."
