Sylvain Blassel is a harpist and conductor. Very early in his career, his position as Pierre Boulez’s assistant with the Ensemble InterContemporain led to many formative experiences: working for example with György Kurtag, György Ligeti, Brian Ferneyhough, and Helmut Lachenmann.
Keen to expand the repertoire available to him as a harpist, Sylvain Blassel has come to specialise in the virtuoso adaptation of music hitherto undreamt-of on the harp. He performs not simply transcriptions of digestible solos, but giants of the piano and orchestra repertoire.
Our 2021 concert agenda is off to a fascinating start! Sylvain Blassel – true to form – performs Haydn’s Sonata n° 60 Hob.XVI.50, and Beethoven’s Six Bagatelles, op.126.

Constance Luzzati specialises in expanding the harp repertoire in two very different ways: through contemporary premiers, and the transcription of early music. She obtained her doctorate in performance from the Paris Conservatoire (CNSMDP) and the Sorbonne, focusing on 18th century French harpsichord repertoire. It is this very repertoire that we will enjoy during her performance of January 14th!

Alexandra Bidi was born in 2002 in New York City. She began her harp studies at the Scuola Musicale di Milano (Italy), before continuing with Beatriz Millán, Zoraida Ávila and Ghislaine Petit-Volta. In 2020, she joined Isabelle Moretti’s class at the Paris Conservatoire (CNSMDP).
Alexandra is the winner of the the Martine Géliot International Harp Competition (2019), the Concurso Ibérico Isolda, Collegium 21, and the Léopold Bellan competition.

Hélène Breschand is part of a generation of musicians who explore new worlds by dismantling boundaries between disciplines. Her music makes us forget all about the particularities of the harp, and instead, we are immersed in a complete experience.
Hélène Breschand has worked with composers such as Luciano Berio, Bernard Cavanna, Pascal Dusapin and Eliane Radigue, and performs with numerous improvisers such as Médéric Collignon, Joelle Léandre, Jean-François Pauvros and Elliott Sharp. She also works on projects with dance, cinema, theatre and the visual arts: with Christian Marclay, The Do, David Toop, and Hiroshi Sugimoto.
