Concertos, Sonates & Quintettes pour violoncelle par Luigi Boccherini
Avec Steven Isserlis, Irène Duval, Jonian Ilias Kadesha, Eivind Ringstad, Tim Posner

Praised for “her mastery of phrasing and of the dramatic dimension”
(Diapason), “astonishing virtuosity” (Révélations Classiques) and
“her infinite delicacy” (Le Populaire du Centre), French violinist Irène
Duval is establishing herself as a uniquely compelling performer with
a strong interest in combining works central to the repertoire with
little-known gems. Born in France to a French father and Korean
mother, Irène Duval grew up in Japan, Indonesia and Hong Kong
before returning to France at the age of eleven. She studied with
Suzanne Gessner and Jean-Jacques Kantorow, before entering the
Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris in 2008 in the
class of Roland Daugareil. In 2014 she joined the Kronberg Academy
in Germany, where she studied with Mihaela Martin for three years.
