52 PIAZZOLLA | ESTACIONES PORTEÑAS ∙ ACONCAGUA ∙ OBLIVION With a name that reflects both its local roots and its international momentum, the ensemble Lausanne Soloists aims to showcase a generation of musicians trained at the HEMU – Haute École de Musique. Created in 2019 at the initiative of the French violinist Renaud Capuçon, Lausanne Soloists brings to the fore the finest string players of the HEMU, with several international tours and more than thirty concert dates already to their credit. Promised from the outset a bright future, the ensemble regularly performs to full houses, and each of its concerts offers an intense, vibrant experience that wins the hearts of the audience and the praise of critics. Since 2022, under the direction of cellist Xavier Phillips, Lausanne Soloists offer current and former HEMU students the opportunity to experience a formative and memorable encounter with the concert platform. Their foremost ambition is to build among their musicians a perfect cohesion that gives rise to moments of shared music-making of the highest standard. Lausanne Soloists bring together around twenty string players, all from the HEMU and selected by competitive audition, around an internationally renowned artist. A distinguished patron, providing artistic mentorship, allows the ensemble to perform in Switzerland and internationally during two annual tours as part of concert seasons and festivals.
