Julien Quentin

He has established himself as a versatile and sensitive musician, showing great maturity and poise. His remarkable musical depth and clarity of sound, coupled with impeccable technique, make him a sought-after artist as a solo performer and chamber musician. Touring internationally in America, Australia, Japan, the Middle East and throughout Europe, he has performed at the Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, London's Wigmore Hall, the Louvre in Paris, the Baden-Baden Festspielhaus, the Berlin Philharmonic and the Gewandhaus in Leipzig. He has also performed at the Vienna Konzerthaus, the Mariinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg, the Avery Fisher, Alice Tully and Carnegie Halls in New York. He has recorded for EMI, Channel Classics, Sony RCA, Hungaroton and Decca.

Born in Paris, he began his studies at the Geneva Conservatory with Alexis Golovine. He completed his Artist diploma under the tutelage of Emile Naoumoff at Indiana University, where he held a one-year teaching position as an assistant instructor and received the Presser Prize. He then earned his graduate diploma from the Juilliard School, where he studied with György Sándor. He has also worked with Paul Badura-Skoda, Nikita Magaloff, György Sebök and Earl Wild.

Julien Quentin now lives in Berlin. With Musica Litoralis at Piano Salon Christophori, he has created an increasingly successful concert series reminiscent of the salons of the Roaring Twenties. With visual artists, he explores new artistic visions that join different art forms. He also pursues his interest in other musical genres through his collaboration with pianists Kelvin Sholar, Kaan Bulak and Francesco Tristano, or producers Adrien de Maublanc and Cesar Merveille on projects ranging from improvisation to electronic music production such as his new proposals Midiminuit & Les Coeurs Brisés.
