One Brahms quartet is p layed on each day and to the programme is added other masterpieces like Be ethoven’s first trio and Lekeu’s violin sonata which was one of Menuhi n’s favourite pieces.\n\nCellist Gauthier Herrmann has assembled a team of players which include violinist Mathilde Borsarello Herrmann\, a prize winner of the Thibaud-Long competition\, Cécile Grassi\, who is violist o f the Psophos quartet and pianist Jean-Michel Dayez who graduated from the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel and from the Paris Conservatory.\n\nTravelle r\, entrepreneur\, explorer\, Gauthier Herrmann is not your typical musici an. A passionate cello player with a focus on chamber music\, founder and director of “Artie's”\, Gauthier has travelled the world for ten years in the company of his family and Artie's joyful musicians\; artists unite d by their repertoire and their loyalty to each other.\nHis focus and dete rmination have led him to be held in high regard on the classical musical circuit. He has received high awards (with the Trio con Fuoco) and acclaim at the Florence\, Heerlen\, Illzach\, Vibrarte and Fnapec music competiti ons and he is highly respected by leading musicians. In 2001\, Gauthier He rrmann discovered India. This trip gave birth to the Artie's adventure\, a slightly crazy project summed up by two words at the heart of modern day classical music : family and enterprise. Artie’s festival’s developmen t is thanks to an entrepreneur who\, wanting to set-up a series of music c oncerts\, sold his first cello\, to make possible the dream of bringing to gether two worlds previously seen as incompatible: classical music and Ind ia. Nine years\, 18 editions\, 14 cities\, 51 musicians\, 65 trips and mor e than 37\,000 spectators later\, chamber music has found a home in India. Aside from India\, Artie’s has played in China\, Saudi Arabia\, Kuwait\ , Vietnam\, Indonesia\, Nepal and in Europe of course…\n\nCécile Grassi played chamber music at an early age and founded Psophos Quartet in 1997 with whom she is the violist. The quartet won numerous international prize s and it was the First French Quartet selected for the prestigious New Gen eration Artists BBC Radio 3 in London and in 2005 awarded "Best Ensemble o f the Year" at the Victoires de la Musique. Other prizes include 3rd prize at Osaka\, 2nd prize at Vittorio Gui competition in Florence and 1st priz e at the String quartet competition in Bordeaux. The quartet has recorded many discs.\n\nJean-Michel Dayez graduated from the Valenciennes and Lille Conservatoires\, then joined Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden's class at the Bru ssels Royal Conservatory (1997). A year later\, he graduated with flying c olours and was awarded the Special Jury Prize. In 1998\, he was admitted t o the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel where he studied for three years and gr aduated with the highest honours. Jean-Michel is Artistic director of Ecou ter-Voir season of Tourcoing and a member of Trio Leos. He teaches at the Conservatoire of Lille\, Royal Conservatoire of Mons and at the Festival A cademie de Arcs.\n\nMathilde Borsarello Herrmann started studying the viol in from the age of five with her father. After being awarded the first pri ze in Suzanne Gessner's class\, she later studied chamber music with Paul Boufil and joined the violin class of Patrice Fontanarosa and Jean-Jacques Kantarow at the Paris Conservatoire. Mathilde is a prize winner of the pr estigious Thibaud-Long competition. She is a member of Orchestre National de France and Trio Estampe\, and plays a violin by Riccardo Genovese of 19 31.\n\n \;\n\n\n\n\n\n \;\n\n \; ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://poonamusic.com/pms_wp/wp-content/uploads /2017/02/MathildeBorsarello1-scaled.jpg CATEGORIES:Festivals LOCATION:Mazda Hall\, Sardar Dastur Hoshang Boys High School\, Pune\, India GEO:18.5198845;73.87824479999995 X-APPLE-STRUCTURED-LOCATION;VALUE=URI;X-ADDRESS=Sardar Dastur Hoshang Boys High School\, Pune\, India;X-APPLE-RADIUS=100;X-TITLE=Mazda Hall:geo:18.51 98845,73.87824479999995 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
