Born in France, violinist Charlotte Saluste-Bridoux is the 2021 grand prize winner of Young Classical Artists Trust and Concert Guild International Competition. Nominated as a 2022 Rising Star Artist by Classic FM, she made her debut with the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra in 2023 and the CBSO Orchestra in 2024. Earlier this year she returned to the Wigmore Hall, performing alongside her duo partner, Joseph Havlat.

Her debut solo album “Ostinata,” released in 2022 by Champs Hill Records, received critical acclaim from Gramophone describing her as “an artist with something of her own to say, and something worth hearing” and The Strad for its “lyrical flow and tonal beauty.” Her next CD, featuring Schubert works recorded with Joseph Havlat, is scheduled for release with Delphian Records later this year.

An avid chamber musician, Charlotte has participated in prestigious festivals across the world, such as the Australian Chamber Music Festival, Open Chamber Music at Prussia Cove. Her performances also include appearances at the Wigmore Hall, BBC Prom with the 12 Ensemble, and the Franck Piano Quintet at the Gstaadt Festival alongside Alina Ibragimova, Lawrence Power, Sol Gabetta, and Bertrand Chamayou.

Charlotte recently joined the Chiaroscuro quartet, an award-winning string quartet that performs on historical instruments.

Charlotte enjoys playing a wide variety of repertoire, including more rarely heard solo concertos  by Panufnik, Vasks, and Joachim, the latter which she has performed alongside Bernstein’s Serenade with the Budapest Concerto Orchestra, reflects her adventurous musical spirit. A student of Alina Ibragimova and Natasha Boyarsky, Charlotte graduated from London’s Royal College of Music and the Yehudi Menuhin School. She currently plays a Giovanni Battista Rogeri violin, and an Edwin Clement bow kindly loaned to her by the Swiss Foundation Boubo-Music.
