Thibault Cauvin is one of the greatest classical guitarists.

He has scoured the whole world, played on the most prestigious stages on the planet, and made the strings of his instrument vibrate as well as the hearts of his audience.

He is now publishing his autobiography with Éditions du Rocher.

If classical musicians are men of measure, 

 is certainly not a man of half measures.

The only musician in the world to have won 36 international prizes before the age of 20, he has visited more than 120 countries for some 1,500 performances.

A virtuoso and enthusiast who devoted his youth to an instrument: the guitar.

He devoted hours and hours, days and nights to her, to the point of living by her and for her and abandoning everything else.

He has since caught up a bit.

But certainly, Thibault Cauvin is an artist never in "moderato", always in "vivacious" sometimes to the excess that we discover in his first autobiography which he published at only 37 years old, with the journalist from Figaro Magazine Francois Deletraz.

His book “À Cordes et à Coeur” was published by Éditions du Rocher.

Rebroadcast of the program from Monday, February 28, 2022.
