Her first vivid memory of music is of her father at the piano, belting out the orchestral lines of Schumann’s concerto. From that moment, the piano quickly became the center of her life.
Trained in Leipzig, Brussels, Cologne and at the CNSM in Paris, she studied with Jean-Claude Vanden Eynden, Piotr Anderzewski, Anthony Spiri, Anne Le Bozec, Susan Manoff, Emmanuel Olivier and Maria Belooussova.
She has a deep love for chamber music and has specialized in vocal collaboration. A prizewinner in several international competitions, she won First Prize for Voice-Piano Duo at the Nadia et Lili Boulanger competition in 2015, with soprano Marie Perbost. Their CD Une jeunesse à Paris was released by Harmonia Mundi in 2019.
Her album Ljus – Swedish Songs, recorded with mezzo-soprano Marine Chagnon and released by Mirare in 2022, highlights her strong affinity for Swedish music.
Her passion for blending art forms also nourishes her stage work. Among her multidisciplinary creations are “Fugue en fuite”, “Le ciel était trop bleu”, “Une jeunesse à Paris”, “Le travail du peintre” and “Taxi Folie”.
Joséphine currently teaches and works as a collaborative pianist at the CRR de Paris, the Chœur de l’Orchestre de Paris, and the Maîtrise Populaire de l’Opéra-Comique.
