He furthermore returns to The Juilliard School in New York to work with their period-instrument ensemble Juilliard415.

In the operatic field, Heras-Casado conducts Wagner’s ›Die Walküre‹ at Teatro Real in Madrid, where he is Principal Guest Conductor, continuing his first-ever complete Ring Cycle, which started with ›Das Rheingold‹ in the previous year and will span four consecutive seasons. He also returns to Staatsoper Unter den Linden in Berlin to conduct ›Don Giovanni‹, a co-production of the opera house with the Salzburg Festival.

He enjoys a long-term collaboration with Freiburger Barockorchester with extensive touring and recording projects and is currently Director of the Granada Festival.
