Pablo Valetti
violin
Born in Buenos Aires where he carried out his violin studies, Pablo Valetti entered
the Schola Cantorum of Basel in 1991 in the classes of Chiara Banchini, John Holloway
and Jesper Christensen.
As soloist and first violin he has performed with such baroque ensembles as Café
Zimmermann, Le Concert des Nations and Hesperion XXI (Jordi Savall), (René Jacobs???),
Les Musiciens du Louvre (Marc Minkowski), Concerto Vocale, Les Talens Lyriques
(Christophe Rousset)… in Europe, Japan, North and South America.
Pablo Valetti has taken part in recordings for Astrée, Deutsche Harmonia Mundi,
Harmonia Mundi France and Archiv Produktion, as well as broadcast programs such as the
West Deutsche Rundfunk.
In violin duo with Manfred Kraemer and The Rare Fruits Council, he was awarded the
highest prizes of international criticism for their recording of works by Biber
(Diapason d’or de l’année, Répertoire, Gramophone, Grand Prix de
l’Académie du Disque, etc.).
In 1998, Pablo Valetti founded the ensemble Café Zimmermann, subsidised by the
Région de Haute-Normandie and the Culture de la Nation. With this variable-geometry
ensemble, he regularly records for the publisher Alpha in Paris. He received
international praise for his recordings of the Concerti by J.S. Bach, the Concerti
Grossi by Charles Avison after Domenico Scarlatti’s “Lessons for the
harpsichord” and the Sonatas for violin and harpsichord by Johannes
Mattheson.
His future projects include the continuation of the Concerti, the Orchestral Suites
and the Sonatas for violin and harpsichord by JS Bach, recordings of works by CPE Bach
as well as a series dedicated to the history of string quartet, still in collaboration
with Alpha Productions.
