Lou Renaud-Bailly

Born in 1989, Lou Renaud-Bailly joined the CNSMD of Lyon in the class of Jean Geoffroy, Henri-Charles Caget and Philippe Labadie, and obtained her master’s degree in 2017. Raised awareness among musical theatre, improvisation and ancient music, her identity is refined through contact with composers ; she works in close collaboration with many of them, including Bertrand Plé, François Vallet and Maxime Mantovani. With this in mind, she undertakes her Artist Diploma, at the end of which her first show, Chroniques Cosmiques, is created. Her taste for creation was affirmed alongside the members of the TaCTuS ensemble in the show for young audiences L’appel de la Forêt and then with L’Arbre en Poche by Claire Diterzi. In addition, Lou is frequently invited to play in orchestras and early music ensembles such as the Orchestre National de Lyon, the Opera de Lyon, the Opera de Saint-Étienne, the ensemble Correspondances… Her recorder and percussion duo, alongside Clémence Niclas, will soon be premiered in partnership with the Jeunesses Musicales de France for the 2021-2022 season.
