pour le dernier album Jean Françaix
"[..] Avec cette gravure réalisée par Claves au début de cette année, on déguste, grâce aux charmes, à l’homogénéité et à la musicalité
des vents de l’Orchestre de chambre de Lausanne, un large pan de ses productions pour dixtuor que Françaix chérissait particulièrement.
Nicolas Chalvin, musicien aguerri et inspiré coordonne cette réalisation avec goût et entrain.
Lui et ses instrumentistes s’investissent pour faire briller l’esthétique de Françaix. Classé dans le groupe « Jeune France »,
il appartient totalement à un néoclassicisme aussi léger que brillant, aussi attrayant qu’élégant, magnifiant cet « esprit français »
avec un double lignage vers Chabrier, Ravel et Poulenc, et vers Mozart et Schubert.[..]"

Right from the beginning of a musical adventure that for several years concentrated solely on live performances of the complete Bach Cantatas in Geneva, with three concerts per season, Gli Angeli Genève has been the setting for encounters between some of the most famous singers and instrumentalists of the international baroque scene and young graduates of the High Schools of Music of Basel, Lyon, Lausanne and Geneva.
Since making the decision to establish his own trio with bassist Werner Spies and drummer Hugo Radyn in 2006, Charl du Plessis has alerted audiences to the complexities and capabilities of combining jazz and classic music. The creative possibilities of this musical unit have offered him the means to produce a wide range of music not confined by any style or genre.
She is a multiple prize winner of national and international competitions and a scholarship holder of the Bachwoche Ansbach. She received important impulses from Henri Sigfridsson, Aleksandar Madžar, Brigitte Meyer, Konstantin Lifschitz and Hartmut Höll, among others.
Her performances have taken her to Paris, Bayreuth at the Steingräber & Söhne Piano Factory as part of the Young Master Pianists, to Gladbeck for the Forum of German Music Academies, to the Theater Basel, to Sils Maria and to the Menuhin Festival in Gstaad.
The multi-talented musician was appointed the youngest principal flutist at the Winterthur Symphony Orchestra and at the Lucerne Festival Orchestra with additional conducting responsibilities. It followed a period of full time opera and symphonic conducting.
