Valentina Rebaudo

Italian-born clarinetist Valentina Rebaudo studied at the Conservatoire National de Région in Nice, the Musikhochschule in Freiburg im Breisgau, and the Haute École de Musique in Lausanne. An eclectic artist, she is very active in chamber music and is responsible for the theory department at the Lausanne Conservatory. A pioneer in promoting music as a form of non-violent resistance, she has led educational projects in Palestinian refugee camps and in Latin America. Sensitive to the social dimension of music, she is a member of Les Concerts du Cœur, a Swiss association that received the Prix Culturel 2023, which aims to integrate music into the daily lives of the elderly, hospitalized, incarcerated, or disadvantaged people, in order to help alleviate their isolation through quality concerts. Valentina is also the artistic director of the Festival du Bois qui Chante in Château-d'Oex.
