Conductor, choral director and creator of immersive musical experiences, Lionel Gaudin-Villard develops a distinctive artistic vision in which each concert becomes a narrative journey, designed to move, inspire and bring people together.

A recognized figure of the musical scene in Nouvelle-Aquitaine, he has built his reputation through commitment, artistic rigor and an innovative approach to performance formats.

From 2008 to 2023, as Music and Artistic Director of the Orchestre Symphonique de Gironde, he imagined and conducted nearly 1,200 concerts, welcoming more than 750,000 spectators. His pioneering work in educational symphonic concerts profoundly influenced a generation and reshaped how classical music is introduced to young audiences.

Today, Lionel Gaudin-Villard expands this work into new artistic territories: thematic creation, musical dramaturgy, narrative design, orchestral and choral conducting.

He conceives custom artistic experiences, tailored projects and Signature Concerts that reveal the identity of venues, institutions and repertoire.

His journey reflects a deep conviction: music is not only meant to be heard — it is meant to be lived, together.
