Sébastien Giot started playing the violin at the age of 4 and studying the oboe at 8 in his father's class at the Conservatoire national de région de Perpignan. He obtained a First Prize in both disciplines and entered the CNSMD of Lyon in the class of Jean-Christophe Gayot and Guy Laroche. In 1999, he obtained a First Prize in oboe (unanimously). At the age of 20, he joined the Strasbourg Philharmonic Orchestra as principal oboe. Between 2001 and 2004 he won no less than five international prizes: Tokyo, Petritoli, Toulon, the "European Young Concert Artists in Paris" and the "International Young Concert Artists" in New York. Following these distinctions, he was selected to participate in the "Déclic" programme which promotes young artists abroad and recorded a first opus. He performs as a soloist and gives masterclasses in the United States, Japan, Pakistan, Thailand, Brazil, Malaysia, Korea, Colombia... Passionate about chamber music, he is a member of the Erasme quintet (a group made up of soloists from the Strasbourg Philharmonic Orchestra) and plays alongside artists such as Jean-Yves Thibaudet, Nemanja Radulovic, Roland Pidoux...
