He has been invited as artistic director at the Conservatoire Supérieur de Paris, at the Moscow Conservatory Baroque Orchestra in 2014 as well as teaching workshops about Haydn symphonies at the Academie de Saintes.

Emmanuel has recently created his own ensemble, Exit, with whom he has recorded his first CD for the Label Passacaille. This CD is dedicated to violin music from southern Italy in the 17th century, featuring some hidden treasures from Palermo, Messina, and Naples.
