Héloïse Gaillard

Héloïse Gaillard is a French baroque oboist, recorder player, and artistic director renowned for her vibrant interpretations of early music. As a co-founder of the ensemble Amarillis, she specializes in breathing new life into 17th- and 18th-century repertoire, often spotlighting overlooked composers like Élisabeth Jacquet de La Guerre or weaving thematic projects like *Portraits de la Folie*. Her recent collaborations, such as *Tombeau pour Aliénor* with organist Thierry Escaich, showcase her flair for blending dramatic storytelling with historical precision. Whether resurrecting Purcell’s theatrical tunes or exploring Handel’s intricate suites, Gaillard brings a warm, inventive energy to Baroque works, making them feel freshly discovered rather than centuries old. Her recordings often feel like shared adventures—equal parts scholarship and playfulness.
