A book, a testimony : La Saltimbanque (Éd. Slatkine)
In this autobiographical work, entitled La saltimbanque, Estelle Revaz reveals herself with sincerity and emotion. How did she become a cellist? What goes on behind the scenes of her international career? What is her life like as a self-employed artist? How did she manage, as a private citizen, to change the Covid law so that our country's 300,000 cultural actors could be compensated? The glitter of the stage is matched by the doubts of a sensitive, demanding personality who is sometimes confronted by the brutality of life. But she's driven by an unshakeable faith to change things and follow through on her aspirations. A moving and inspiring tale that encourages us to dream big. Available in bookshops from September 12, as well as at various concert-events that will take you even further...

www.slatkine.com Great reception for the album Inspiration populaire!
The album Inspiration populaire, released in early 2022 by Solo Musica, has been enthusiastically received by the international media. La Liberté speaks of a nourished and refined program, while Le Matin Dimanche rejoices in a joyful, jubilant and moving result. The press also unanimously underlined the connivance of the two musicians. The Tribune de Genève writes for example that the two accomplices' playing displays a homogeneity and a solid understanding.

An incredible year 2021!
2021 has been an incredible year! It began on a television set in front of the President of the Confederation Guy Parmelin. This was followed by months of political commitment to the defense of actresses and cultural actors with, fortunately, some successes, notably through the Covid law. On the artistic level, 2021 also brought many very intense moments, whether it be with the recording of the album Inspiration Populaire or on stage with a revival that was certainly temporary but so intense!
Some beautiful summer concerts!
In spite of a very uncertain situation, fortunately a few concerts could be maintained this summer. Emotion was palpable and the magic of the live show could operate to the greatest delight of both public and musicians.
The concerts at the Rencontres Musicales de Champéry were sold out and Beethoven's Triple Concerto alongside Alexandra Conunova and François-Frédéric Guy was highly acclaimed by the press (link below).
The concert with Renaud Capuçon at Variations Musicales de Tannay was the occasion of a beautiful artistic encounter applauded by a captivated audience.
