PAUSE VIDEO - CAMILLE THOMAS

It's been quite a year for Camille: In January, she was named one of Forbes’ 30 Under 30 Europe: Arts & Culture; in April she played the world premiere of Fazil Say's cello concerto, a piece written especially for her, at the Théâtre des Champs-Elysées with the Orchestre de Chambre de Paris conducted by Douglas Boyd. 

Although every year has been quite a year. In 2017, Camille became the first female cellist to join Deutsche Grammophon’s artist roster, and the first Belgian Artist to sign to the international label. And she took part in the first pause, at one point, gamely climbing over Roman ruins to play El Cants Dells Occels, something no-one who was there will forget. Camille is one of many talents performing at La Donaira this August. Details and tickets.
