Mathilde Caldérini

Mathilde Caldérini studied the flute with Claude Lefebvre at the CRR of Paris, then with Sophie Cherrier and Vincent Lucas at the CNSM of Paris. She then studied at the Royal Academy of Music in London with William Bennett and Samuel Coles. It is under the guidance of Paul Meyer and Eric Lesage that Mathilde Caldérini developed her passion for chamber music. She is thus a member of the Ouranos Ensemble, a wind quintet with variable geometry, in residence at the Singer-Polignac Foundation, with which she won the First Prize and Audience Prize of the Lyon International Chamber Music Competition in 2018.
Born in France, Mathilde leads a career throughout Europe and Asia. In the last two seasons, Mathilde has been invited to perform as a soloist in France with the Orchestre National de France, the Orchestre des Pays de Savoie, the Ensemble Nouvelles Portées, the Secession Orchestra, as well as in Germany with the Stuttgart Radio Orchestra, in Turkey with the Bursa State Symphony Orchestra, and in Asia with the Tokyo Ensemble, the Hyogo Performing Arts orchestra of Osaka, the Kobe City Chamber Orchestra, and on tour in Korea with the Bucheon Philharmonic Orchestra.
Mathilde also performs in recital and chamber music at the Radio France Festival in Montpellier, at Musique à l'Empéri, at the Deauville Festival, at the Easter Festival in Aix-en-Provence, at the Flâneries Musicales in Reims, at the Rencontres Musicales in Calenzana, at the Classic Festival in Guéthary, and plays alongside Renaud Capuçon, Nicolas Angelich, Paul Meyer, Edgar Moreau, Aurèle Marthan, Guillaume Bellom, Agnès Clément, Denis Pascal, and Marie Chilemme.
