Les Solistes Romandes is a classical music ensemble that was founded in 2001 in Switzerland. The ensemble is made up of some of the most talented musicians in the country, and they have gained a reputation for their exceptional performances of classical music. The founding members of Les Solistes Romandes were violinist Alexandre Dubach, cellist Marc Jaermann, and pianist Cédric Pescia. The three musicians had previously played together in various chamber music groups, and they decided to form their own ensemble in order to explore the rich repertoire of classical music for piano trio. Since its founding, Les Solistes Romandes has become one of the most respected classical music ensembles in Switzerland. The group has performed at some of the country's most prestigious concert halls, including the Victoria Hall in Geneva and the Tonhalle in Zurich. They have also toured extensively throughout Europe, performing in France, Germany, Italy, and other countries. One of the highlights of Les Solistes Romandes' career was their performance at the 2004 Lucerne Festival. The festival is one of the most important classical music events in Europe, and the ensemble was honored to be invited to perform there. Their performance was widely praised by critics and audiences alike, and it helped to establish the group as one of the leading chamber music ensembles in Switzerland. In addition to their performances, Les Solistes Romandes has also received numerous awards and accolades for their recordings. Their debut album, which featured works by Beethoven and Brahms, was released in 2003 and received widespread critical acclaim. The group has since released several more albums, including recordings of works by Schubert, Mendelssohn, and Shostakovich. One of the things that sets Les Solistes Romandes apart from other classical music ensembles is their commitment to exploring lesser-known works by composers from around the world. The group has commissioned several new works by contemporary composers, and they have also performed works by composers from countries such as Russia, Hungary, and Argentina. Despite their success, Les Solistes Romandes remains committed to their original mission of exploring the rich repertoire of classical music for piano trio. The group continues to perform regularly throughout Switzerland and Europe, and they are widely regarded as one of the most exciting and innovative classical music ensembles of their generation.
