THE ARTISTS

Anne Dezombre, piano

Born in Paris, Anne Dezombre began playing piano in France then perfected her skills in Montreal, where she studied piano, accompaniment and French Letters. 

She performs at the Les Nuits Caraibes festival in Guadeloupe, at the Nancyphonies Festival, at the Soirées du Château de Brinville, at the Auditorium de Vincennes, at the opening concert of the Mois de la Francophonie in Havana and at the Belgian Embassy in Cuba. 

Prized in the field of vocal and lyrical accompaniment, she also forms a duo with the pianist Hugues Leclère. 

Passionate about teaching, she holds a State Diploma as a piano teacher and specializes in teaching precocious children.

Hugues Leclère, piano

Hugues Leclère perfected his skills with Catherine Collard before entering the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris where he unanimously obtained three first prizes in piano, musical analysis and chamber music. 

He began a career as a soloist which took him to 43 countries, alongside prestigious orchestras (Camerata du Berliner Philharmoniker, National Orchestra of Czech Radio, National Orchestra of Thailand…) and partners such as Augustin Dumay, the Soloists of the Paris Orchestra, the Talich quartet, or the StreichQuintett of the Berliner Philharmoniker. 

Composer and member of the SACD, he designs shows that combine different artistic expressions, such as L’Engrenage, certified by the Mission of the Great War, La Mort de l’Aigle which recounts Napoleon’s exile in Saint Helena, with the actor Francis Huster or Bachmania, Beethovenmania and Debussymania on two pianos with Jean-François Zygel. 

He is coordinating professor of piano at the Conservatoire in Paris.
