Les Dissonances, a shared experience
Inspired by his experience with Les Dissonances, David Grimal develops projects as artistic director with other orchestras and regular ensembles.
Develop the collective sense
Working without a conductor requires a commitment on the part of each musician. The artistic direction advocated by David Grimal aims to create the right conditions for collective work, to liberate the artistic gesture, and to allow each player to make his/her contribution to the musical project. Each person’s talents are called upon to the utmost. During concerts, energies and sensibilities are transmitted between the musicians and deployed within each section and instrumental group. The work, although it is led by the first violin, is the product of a collaboration between all the players.
We must be able to play as a single person, but this cohesion, this osmosis, must not reduce the role of any individual.
David Grimal as artistic director
Drawing on ten years’ experience in artistic direction, David Grimal is invited to act as both soloist and artistic director with many orchestras, including the National Radio Orchestra of Romania, Orchestre National de Lorraine, Orquesta Sinfónica de Galicia, Taipei Symphony Orchestra, Budapesti Vonósok, Royal Chamber Orchestra in Krakow, and Moscow Chamber Orchestra.
