Grégoire Vecchioni

**Grégoire Vecchioni** is a French violinist, conductor, and artistic director best known as the founder of the conductorless chamber orchestra Les Dissonances. Born in 1980, Vecchioni has carved out a unique niche in classical music, blending traditional repertoire with innovative, collaborative performances. His ensemble, Les Dissonances, thrives on a democratic approach to music-making, with musicians working collectively to shape interpretations of works by composers like Strauss, Brahms, and Mahler.

Vecchioni’s recent releases, including string quintet arrangements of pieces like *Shine* and *Prélude marin*, showcase his knack for reimagining classical and contemporary works with intimate, textural precision. He’s also passionate about bridging classical traditions with modern audiences, often programming live performances (like his take on Strauss’s *Piano Quartet* and *Metamorphosen*) that highlight raw, unfiltered energy. When he’s not arranging or performing, Vecchioni champions music education and outreach, embodying his belief that classical music should feel alive, accessible, and unpretentious.
