Anne Gillot

Member of the jury since 2019

Recorder and clarinet player Anne Gillot works as much on the creation and preservation of the contemporary music repertoire as she does on researching sound through technology and improvisation.  She is a member of the ensembles baBel (Lausanne), Vortex (Geneva), Boulouris5 (Lausanne), and duo 1+1 with saxophonist Laurent Estoppey.
During a residency at the GMEM in Marseille in 2017, she developed "Wildbroadcasting", a dynamic solo conjoining her musical and radio activity, in collaboration with musician and vocalist Alessandro Bosetti. This project is on tour until 2023.
Anne Gillot is also interested in musical improvisation and co-operates in this context with numerous musicians in Switzerland and abroad. In 2021, she participated in the performance of The Glass Cage, 7 Stunden - 7 gläserne Käfige - 7 Künstler (7 hours - 7 glass cages - 7 artists) RATHAUSGALERIE | KUNSTHALLE MÜNCHEN conceived by Stefan Winter.
She sits on the juries for the Nicati, Luc Ferrari, Presque rien of La Muse en Circuit in Paris, and Palma Ars Acustica (international acoustic art competition) competitions, among others. She has been member of the Jury for the Swiss Music Prize since 2019. Interested in the different forms of music on stage, she is active in the performance field, playing Daniel Zea's works for Kinect sensors and movements, the latest of which was created at the ZKM in Karlsruhe in November 2018. She is also a member of the STT theatre company directed by Dorian Rossel. Alongside her musical activities, Anne Gillot is in charge of contemporary music for the Espace2 cultural station of Radio Télévision Suisse (RTS). She hosts and produces a weekly programme, "Musique d'avenir". Anne Gillot also organises the Art's Birthday event at RTS with the European Broadcasting Unions and the Ars Acustica group.
