Schneider
Traverso and recorder
Roots
I was born and raised in the canton of Neuchâtel in the French part of Switzerland.
Study
After attending the conservatory in Neuchâtel and then in Lausanne, I completed all my professional musical studies at the Schola Cantorum Basiliensis, first in recorder and then in traverso.
Professional
I am currently completing my Master’s degree in Traverso (June 2023), giving chamber music concerts with several ensembles in Switzerland and abroad (repertoire from the Renaissance to the Romantic period on period instruments) and teaching at the Conservatoire populaire de musique, danse et théâtre in Geneva.
Why
Music has always accompanied my life, and after trying to study at university for a year, I chose music instead.
Elective Affinities
The Cie de l’Avant-Scène Opéra has been giving me great opportunities to explore different facets of the stage for 15 years. I also enjoy hiking in the mountains, cycling and cooking.
