Camille Berthollet & Julie Berthollet - #3 (2017) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Camille & Julie are the Berthollet sisters, two extraordinarily gifted musical siblings from the idyllic Rhône-Alpes region in France. Camille (18) plays violin and cello and Julie (20) violin and viola. They became celebrities in France when the then 15-year-old Camille won Prodiges, a TV show for classical virtuosos under the age of 16.

After captivating more than four million viewers on the France 2 network with her searing rendition of ‘Summer’ from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, Camille was immediately signed to Warner Classics, her debut album (featuring her older sister as duo partner) achieved Gold status with more than 80,000 copies sold in France alone and more than 1.7 million streams. This is their third album and the expectation of their fans is already high!

The Berthollet sisters: “On our third album we play a variety of styles from Bach to Sinatra, from Rachmaninov to soundtracks. We picked these pieces as they allow us to express ourselves freely. We have had a fantastic time doing this recording and really hope our fans will enjoy the result!”
