The founding members of Camerata de Geneve were violinists Pierre Amoyal and Corinne Chapelle, violist Bruno Pasquier, cellist Philippe Muller, and pianist Michel Dalberto. These musicians were all accomplished soloists in their own right, but they came together to form the ensemble with the goal of exploring the rich repertoire of chamber music and bringing it to audiences around the world. Over the years, Camerata de Geneve has had a number of different members, but the ensemble has always maintained a high level of musical excellence and a commitment to exploring the full range of chamber music repertoire. Some of the most notable members of the ensemble over the years have included violinist Renaud Capuçon, cellist Gautier Capuçon, and pianist Frank Braley.
