Trio Nebelmeer

Arthur DECARIS, violin
Florian PONS, cello
Loann FOURMENTAL, piano

Inspired by the great romantic works of their group, Arthur Decaris, Florian Pons, and Loann Fourmental chose the name of their trio in reference to Caspar David Friedrich and his iconic “Wanderer above the Sea of ​​Clouds” (Der Wanderer über dem
Nebelmeer). Trained with the Trio Wanderer, Claire Désert, and Louis Rodde, the three musicians were also fortunate to benefit, during their studies and at academies, from the teaching of the Ébène and Modigliani quartets, as well as Johannes Meissl, Olivier Charlier, Emmanuel Strosser, and Lise Berthaud. The three musicians were quickly noticed for their warm and expressive sound and invited to play at major festivals such as La Roque d’Anthéron, La Folle Journée in Nantes, Les Folles Journées in the Pays de la Loire region, and La Folle Journée in Warsaw. Since September 2022, the trio has been an artist-in-residence at the Queen Elisabeth Music Chapel in Belgium under the direction of Corina Belcea, Miguel da Silva, and Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden. Supported by the Caen Theater and Conservatory, their first CD,
dedicated to Chausson and Saint-Saëns, was released in spring 2023 by Mirare and was acclaimed by French and German critics.
In 2024, the trio made their debut at the Bozar Grand Hall in Brussels
for the “Bozar Next Generation” program, as well as at the Epau Abbey Festival.
They won first prize at the Premio Trio Di Trieste international competition in 2024 and will perform in Italy in 2025 and 2026, as well as at the ConcertGebouw in Amsterdam and the Salle de Musique in La-Chaux-de-Fonds.
The Nebelmeer Trio is a laureate of the Banque Populaire Foundation. Arthur Decaris plays a 1735 Seraphin violin, loaned by Mr. Zilber,
on the initiative of the TALENTS & VIOLON’CELLE endowment fund.
Florian PONS plays an 18th-century cello attributed to Ambroise de Comble, a disciple of Stradivarius.
