Jean-Louis Gosselin

As a qualified freelance orchestra conductor, I worked as a deputy chamber music coach, music theory teacher and conductor for the Junior Royal Academy of Music in London. I have also worked with a number of semi-professional orchestras in London, Italy, Russia and Canada. I set up my own orchestra, Les Voix Nouvelles, with the aim of promoting 21st century composers and enabling young conservatoire graduates to perform some of the most challenging symphonic repertoire. London Concerts were given at Cadogan Hall and St John's Smith Square. Recently, I have taken part in a number of masterclasses, for example with Maestro Thomas Netopil and the Moravian Philharmonic Orchestra in the Czech Republic.
