About Orchestre Poitou-Charentes
Artist Biography
Since its inception, the Orchestre Poitou-Charentes (now the Orchestre de Chambre Nouvelle-Aquitaine) offered era-spanning concert programs, from Mozart to Leonard Bernstein to more contemporary fare. The orchestra presented around 40 concerts a year, which included several specifically for children, as well as educational and cultural community outreach programs. The Orchestre Poitou-Charentes was founded in Poitiers, France, in 1981. Pianist and conductor Jean-François Heisser became artistic director in 2000, leading the orchestra on its debut recording of works by Manuel de Falla on the Mirare label in 2007. Several more albums followed, including 2014's American Journey. This would be the group's final recording before it was renamed the Orchestre de Chambre Nouvelle-Aquitaine in 2017. Heisser continued in the post of artistic director with the newly named orchestra.
