The French cellist Guillaume Martigné embodies a tradition of excellence inherited from the greatest masters. Trained by Mark Drobinsky, a disciple of Mstislav Rostropovitch, he continued his apprenticeship with Bernard Greenhouse, founder of the Beaux-Arts Trio and the last living pupil of Pablo Casals, who hosted him for three years in the United States. On his return to France, he honed his skills at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris with Philippe Muller and Michel Strauss. These legendary figures left their mark on his playing, combining depth, virtuosity and sensitivity.
