Jean-Pierre Arnaud
Introduced to the world of oboe and cor anglais at the Saint Étienne Conservatory by Gérard Perreau, Jean-Pierre quickly made a mark, playing at the city's Lyric Theatre by fifteen.

His time at the Paris Conservatory under Pierre Pierlot catapulted him to international recognition. From Salzburg festivals to interpreting Anthony Girard's creations, his journey has been illustrious. In 1984, he joined the Paris Opera Orchestra as a solo English horn player. Jean-Pierre is a dedicated interpreter of Anthony Girard’s oboe works and devoted a 2021 CD to him, "Éloge de la candeur", alongside pianist Geneviève Girard.
