Born into a music-loving family, Gaëlle Solal discovered the classical guitar at the age of five and began studying at the Marseille Conservatoire the following year. At just sixteen she took up a place at the Paris Conservatoire. As a little girl she'd written in a notebook, “When I grow up, I want to be a dancer and musician” – so some dreams do indeed come true...
A committed and supportive professional, she campaigns for the presence and visibility of women in the guitar world via the Guitar'Elles association, of which she is the founder. She has lived in Brussels since 2011 and was recently appointed visiting lecturer at the Royal Conservatory of Ghent.
