I’m extremely touched to have received this exceptional prize, which rewards the courage, commitment and vision of women who dare.
Many thanks to the Region of the Pays de la Loire and its president Christelle Morançais for this recognition, which goes straight to my heart. May it inspire as many women and children to believe in their projects, with passion, resilience and sensitivity.
Watch the ceremony here:
I believe in the power of tales and of the verb. I believe in stories and what they come to nourish. I believe in the shape of our dreams and the way we look at them.
So bravo and thank you to my co-Joséphine for their journey, which I deeply admire. Mathilde Cabanas and her famous Bisou, Sandrine Labbé and her fight to feminize the scientific sector with Bouge ta Boite, Sandrine Lagree, transplanted Olympic champion, and our own Monique Macé, president of the association Les Blouses Roses: here we are Joséphine 2024, if I’d known…
The emotion is overwhelming. Thank you, Life! 💖

Quel honneur!!
Je suis extrêmement touchée d’avoir reçu ce prix exceptionnel, qui récompense le courage, l’engagement et la vision des femmes qui osent.
Merci infiniment à la Région Pays de la Loire et sa présidente Christelle Morançais pour cette reconnaissance qui me va droit au coeur. Puisse-t-elle inspirer autant de femmes et d’enfants à croire en leur projet, avec passion, résilience et sensibilité.
Je crois en effet à la puissance des contes et du verbe. Je crois aux histoires et ce qu’elles viennent nourrir. Je crois à la forme de nos rêves et le regard que nous leur portons.
Alors bravo et merci à mes co-Joséphine pour leur parcours dont je suis profondément admirative. Mathilde Cabanas et son célèbre bisou, Sandrine Labbé et son combat pour féminiser le secteur scientifique avec Bouge ta Boite, Sandrine Lagree, championne olympique transplantée, et notre Monique Macé, présidente de l’association Les Blouses Roses: nous voilà Joséphine 2024, si j’avais su…
L’émotion est immense. Merci la Vie! 💖

In this debut album with Indésens, Annabelle along with her piano partner Georgian pianist Luka Okros, brought a superb opportunity to discover Valentin Bibik. The album brings to light the three Bibik sonatas for violin and piano dated 1975 to 1998.
Recording at the stunning Ferme de Villefavard in Limousin, France brought the perfect setting to bring the Ukrainian composer’s pieces to life.

Annabelle loves rare, powerful scores. As for her worldwide acclaimed Bacewicz album, she has imbued herself with this music. From digitising the manuscripts and together with her piano partner Luka Okros, they fill this album with emotion and humanity to make the boxset a real discovery, already a classic interpretation.
