Renaud Capuçon

Violin

Biography

French violinist Renaud Capuçon is established internationally as a major soloist, recitalist, and chamber musician. Known and loved for his poise, depth of tone and virtuosity, he works with the world’s most prestigious orchestras, artists, venues, and festivals. He performs with leading orchestras such as the Berlin Philharmonic, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Chamber Orchestra of Europe, Milan’s Filarmonica della Scala, London Symphony Orchestra, New York Philharmonic, Vienna Philharmonic, Orchestre de Paris, Orchestre National de France, and Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France. In 2022–23 he made his Carnegie Hall debut in a play-direct performance with the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. He has represented France at some of the world’s most prestigious international events, including performing with cellist Yo-Yo Ma under the Arc de Triomphe for the official commemoration of Armistice Day in the presence of more than 80 heads of state.

Capuçon is the artistic director of three festivals: Sommets Musicaux de Gstaad (since 2016), Easter Festival in Aix-en-Provence (which he founded in 2013), and Rencontres Musicales Festival in Evian (beginning in 2023). Since 2021 he has been artistic director of the Orchestre de Chambre de Lausanne.

The cellist has built an extensive discography and, until recently, recorded exclusively with Erato / Warner Classics. In September 2022 he announced his new partnership with Deutsche Grammophon; two months he later released his first album with the yellow label, a collection of violin sonatas performed with pianist Martha Argerich recorded at his Easter Festival in Aix-en-Provence.

Renaud Capuçon plays the Guarneri del Gesù “Panette” (1737), which belonged to Isaac Stern. The French Government appointed him Chevalier de l’Ordre National du Mérite, in June 2011, and Chevalier de la Légion d’honneur, in March 2016.
