Biography : Théo Ould
Accordionist

After his initial training at the Marseille Conservatory, Théo Ould entered the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Paris at the age of 16 where, at the heart of this musical effervescence, he blossomed and explored new horizons. He could then benefit from the wise advice of Max Bonnay, Olivier Charlier, Mascha Beloosova, Michel Strauss and Ivry Gitlis. He also met many musicians with whom he shared the stage and participated in the creation of four chamber music ensembles, among which ;
The Aeolina Quartet, made up of four accordionists, all of whom have a singular background. A newcomer to the group, this ensemble won the 2018 edition of the Léopold Bellan competition as well as the Ysaye competition in 2019. Solicited for its eclecticism in its program proposals, the group makes audacious transcriptions and interprets contemporary creations. Supported by the ProQuartet agency, the quartet performs in prestigious venues and festivals such as the Berlioz Festival, the Menton Music Festival, La Scala de Paris, Le Vent sur l’Arbre, etc. During its summer tour it received rave reviews in the newspapers Le Monde, Nice matin, La Croix etc. They will record their arrangement of the Symphonie Fantastique next April at the Ferme de Villefavard.
The Philia Trio, founded with two of his closest friends. Immediately noticed for the originality of their formation and their musical choices, Théo Ould and his companions play in many festivals in France and abroad. The Philia Trio will record their first album at the end of 2019 with the label of the Auvers-sur-Oise festival.
Théo Ould, a passionate chamber musician, is resident artist at the Opus Amadeus festival in Istanbul.
He is also frequently invited to perform in recital or with orchestra. In 2018, he won first prize in the solo category at the Léopold Bellan international competition in 2018, as well as the 2019 edition of the international competition for young talent in Normandy. In the same year, he won his prize at the Conservatoire Supérieur with the congratulations of the jury.
In November 2019 Théo Ould became a laureate of the Banque Populaire Foundation.
Involved in the evolution of the repertoire of his instrument, he collaborates very closely with contemporary composers such as Martin Matalon, Régis Campo, Thomas Gubitsh, Jean-Pierre Drouet, Gustavo Beytelman… and thus participates in the creation of numerous pieces for accordion.
Hailed by the accordionist Marcel Azzola, Théo has performed in many contexts (Auvers sur Oise festival, France musique, Marseille opera, Istanbul, Budapest, Astana…), thus allowing us to discover his repertoire composed of pieces written for accordion as well as transcriptions of works by composers such as Bach, Haydn or Mozart.
