The Agency

Diane du Saillant spent her youth passionately studying the violin and foreign languages. Profoundly drawn to music and the arts, she decided at a young age that her future lay in their promotion. After training in one of the greatest classical musical agencies in Paris, she embarked on a career, which seemed cut out for her and spent fifteen years working as an agent at Opéra et Concert in Paris.

Over the years, she built up very strong relationships with great artists.

In the years that followed, we were lucky to have great colleagues including Céline Benezeth and Romain Danzanvilliers.

In 2023, we now have a young, enthusiastic and passionate team:

Julie Grente ; who joined the agency in 2004, has studied piano, translation and music administration, as well as having an exciting experience working with Jacques Thelen. After a three year sabbatical in New York City, in which she took time to raise her children and work for a stint at Cami Music, she returned to the agency in 2017. Julie takes great pleasure in watching the agency expand and evolve through new musical collaborations.

After studying at Sciences Po, Caroline Wable finally decided to follow her passion for classical and contemporary music by joining the agency in January 2022. She has worked in event management and marketing both in France and abroad, and this experience, as well as her passion for discovering new repertoires, are integral to the support she offers artists on a daily basis.

Sidonie Lavie joined the agency in September 2020 as a work-study student. She has training in musicology, economics, communications, and event planning. She is also an accomplished flutist and pianist. She is passionate about nurturing the creative growth of the many artists the agency represents, a task that she and Diane share.

After studying musicology, ethnomusicology, music therapy, and violin in Paris and Lebanon, Sarah Coral joined the agency in October 2022. After two years of field research with musicians in the Palestinian Beddawi camp, Sarah worked for the Philharmonie de Paris and the Spirito Choir in Lyon. Her work at the agency includes accompanying artists on tour and developing new projects for its roster of clients.

The agency works with energy and enthusiasm while sharing a common aim: helping their musicians reach their goals, indeed their dreams, and accomplish their art in the best conditions possible. Broadminded and modern, they are very aware of the rapid transformation of the world of music. In the face of these metamorphoses and the new demands within the business, it is necessary to adapt, react and move forward. With their mutual understanding and cardinal values of respect, friendship and confidence, they intend to move forward accompanying their artists on the long road of classical music.
