Mathilde Calderini, Aurèle Marthan
Mathilde Calderini is one of the most talented flautists on the music scene today. Her recital accompanied by pianist Aurèle Marthan focuses on women in music.
Flautist Mathilde Calderini has been a “super soloist” at the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France since 2020, but she is also deeply committed to chamber music. She explains the idea behind her first album “Avec elles”, released in 2024: “For me this programme is a chance to record pieces I truly believe in, some of which are well-known masterpieces, while showcasing some fascinating women who were real figures in the music of their time”. For this performance, she mixes pieces written by women composers such as Cécile Chaminade and Mel Bonis with works that were inspired by women such as Poulenc’s magnificent Flute Sonata.
