Raphaël COLLARD is a young pianist of eighteen.

He continued his training at the Conservatoire d'Angers, where he obtained his Diplôme d'Études Musicales in 2022. The following year, he was admitted to the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Danse et de Musique de Paris. At his age, his career is already rich in experience and encounters.
