Biography
Joséphine Plagnol discovered her passion for the harp at the age of six in Saint-Leu-la-Forêt. Seduced by the elegance of the instrument, the beauty of its harmonies and its unique way of playing, she quickly set her sights on becoming a professional musician.
Determined to make her dream come true, she enrolled in a special music class (CHAM) at the Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional de Boulogne-Billancourt, where she was taught by Anne Ricquebourg. Her musical training continued in 2020 at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris, where she studied with Isabelle Moretti, one of the leading figures on the harp.
Joséphine has enriched her musical career by working with the Orchestre Colonne and the Orchestre de Mulhouse, as well as performing at the Gargilesse Harp Festival, the Rencontres Internationales de Harpe en Île-de-France and the Instrumentarium.
She has won prizes from the Meyer Foundation, the Martine Géliot competition, Collegium21 and Suoni d'Arpa. Her musical education has also been enriched by the teaching of Gabriella Dall'Olio, Letizia Belmondo, Frédérique Cambreling, Sylvain Blassel and Isabelle Perrin.
Curious and open-minded, Joséphine passionately explores all repertoires and constantly strives to broaden her artistic horizons, aspiring to share the richness and diversity of the harp with an ever-wider audience.
