Héloïse Luzzati
Héloïse Luzzati is a French cellist and cultural entrepreneur dedicated to shining a light on forgotten women composers. A graduate of the prestigious Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris, she is an active performer and passionate chamber musician. Luzzati is the founder of several key initiatives: the Cité des Compositrices association, which restores visibility to women's works; the "Un Temps pour Elles" festival, which programs their music exclusively; and the record label and YouTube channel "La Boîte à Pépites" ("The Jewel Box"). Through these efforts, she actively researches, publishes, and records the scores of talented, overlooked female composers, such as Charlotte Sohy and Jeanne Leleu, challenging their underrepresentation in classical music programming.
