A prize winner of some of the most prestigious international cello competitions, such as the Rostropovich and Queen Elisabeth International Competitions, Yan Levionnois stands out by his inquisitive mind which incites him to diversify his artistic experiences. Immersed in a musical environment from an early age, he began playing the cello with his father before going on to study with Philippe Muller in Paris, with Truls Mørk in Oslo and at the Juilliard School of Music in New York with Timothy Eddy. His career quickly led him to meet and share the stage with artists from all backgrounds, such as David Grimal, Nicholas Angelich, Pierre Fouchenneret, Léa Hennino, Richard Galliano and Elliot Jenicot. Since 2016, his enthusiastic collaboration with the pianist Guillaume Bellom has led them to often appear in recital. Finally, in 2019 he became a member of the Quatuor Hermès, exploring a repertoire of an inexhaustible richness. Equally at ease in the concerto repertoire, he has performed as a soloist with the London Philharmonic Orchestra, the Orchestre National de France and the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse, under the baton of conductors such as Heinrich Schiff, Daniele Gatti and Dimitry Sitkovetsky. A strong defender of the music of his time, he has worked with many contemporary composers, including Richard Dubugnon, Camille Pépin, and Krystof Maratka. Since 2016, he has been an associate artist with the Singer-Polignac Foundation in Paris.
