Rodolphe Théry
Rodolphe has been solo Timpanist of the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France since 2019. Born in 1993, Rodolphe began playing music at the age of 9, and quickly developed a passion for percussion. After completing his training with Jean-Louis Raison at the Conservatoire de Douai, the young musician joined the class of Renaud Muzzolini and Jean Claude Gengembre at the Conservatoire de Montrouge, where he perfected timpani practice, orchestral percussion and chamber music. In 2013, he was unanimously admitted to Michel Cerutti's class at the CNSM de Paris, where he obtained his DNSPM diploma with honors in 2018. Since 2013, Rodolphe has worked regularly with prestigious orchestras such as Orchestre de Paris, Les Siècles, Les Dissonances, Philharmonia Orchestra, Munich's Bayerische Staastoper, Orchestre de Chambre de Paris, as well as under the direction of great conductors such as Myung-Whun Chung, Sir John Elliott Gardiner, François-Xavier Roth, Sir John-Elliott Gardiner and Daniel Harding. Passionate about chamber music and contemporary creation, and with a desire to explore new frontiers, he founded the Trio Xenakis with Adélaïde Ferrière and Emmanuel Jacquet, in residence at the Fondation Singer-Polignac since 2018.
