New single ! Lullaby by Rebecca Clarke
Born in Strasbourg, Geneviève Laurenceau began playing the violin at the age of 3. Her mentors—Wolfgang Marschner, Zakhar Bron, and Jean-Jacques Kantorow, shaped her into a multifaceted artist, at the crossroads of three major European violin schools.
After several international successes and a First Prize at the Novosibirsk International Competition, she was awarded the Grand Prize of the
Maurice Ravel Academy in Saint-Jean-deLuz in 2001. The following year, she won the 5th “Le Violon de l’Adami” competition.
Since then, she has been invited to perform as a soloist with leading French and international orchestras, under the direction of conductors such as Michel Plasson, Walter Weller, Tugan Sokhiev, Thomas Søndergård, Antony Hermus, and Christian Arming, in prestigious venues such as the Théâtre du Châtelet, Halle aux Grains in Toulouse, Arsenal in Metz, Opéra-Théâtre of Avignon, Métropole in Lausanne, Palais
des Beaux-Arts in Brussels, Tapiola in Helsinki, Palacio de la Ópera in A Coruña, Auditorium Manuel de Falla in Granada, and the Stadttheater in Weimar.
From 2007 to 2017, she served as concertmaster of the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse. She is equally passionate about chamber music, and has recently performed with Jean-Frédéric Neuburger, Anne Gastinel, Philippe Jaroussky, Philippe Bianconi, and Bertrand Chamayou. Passionate about sharing music, Geneviève Laurenceau thrives on collaboration: her duo with philosopher Raphaël Enthoven, physicist Étienne Klein, her work with actor Didier Sandre, and the show La Symphonie des oiseaux, created with Johnny Rasse, Jean Boucault, and pianist Lidija Bizjak, all enrich her artistic journey.
Committed to contemporary creation, she regularly works with composers such as Karol Beffa, Benjamin Attahir, Bruno Mantovani, and Philippe Hersant. She is also president and artistic director of the Obernai Chamber Music Festival, and teaches at the IESM in Aix-en-Provence and at the CRR Grand Parc de Versailles.
