Who: Jean-Guihen Queyras
Violoncello
Whether on stage or on record, Jean-Guihen Queyras is an artist dedicated to a humble and unpretentious treatment of the score that reflects its clear, undistorted essence. Having begun his career under the tutelage of Pierre Boulez, his approaches both to early and contemporary music now hold an equally important place in his work. Ever curious, Jean-Guihen is a faithful chamber music partner for numerous renowned musicians of all musical styles, not shying away from blurring the boundaries with other genres such as jazz or world music.
