Camille Berthollet

Camille Berthollet takes the stage at the Kursaal Besancon on 18 March 2026 for a concert tailored to her, balancing energy and finesse. A consummate instrumentalist, she moves effortlessly between violin and cello and weaves a through-line that keeps melody at the centre. Her playing relies on breath and narrative, with precise phrasing, deliberate contrasts and a constant attention to colour. She likes to build bridges between the major works that shaped her and more contemporary pieces, favouring spare arrangements that let the bow speak. There is a sincere curiosity in her approach, a way of letting emotions circulate without overstating effects, alternating intimate movements with livelier surges. On stage she creates a direct, close atmosphere that brings out the natural singing of her strings and a strong sense of rhythm. This engagement at the Kursaal Besancon is an opportunity to enter her world, follow an open musical trajectory, and rediscover what her instruments can convey when they are allowed to breathe. On 18 March 2026, expect an evening in which listening and the present moment guide the programme.
