His father, violinist and conductor Gaston Poulet had the privilege of premiering Debussy\u2019s Sonata in 1917, with the author at the piano. G\u00e9rard entered the Conservatoire National Sup\u00e9rieur in Paris at the age of eleven, and graduated two years after being awarded First Prize, unanimously. At age eighteen, he won the First Prize at the Paganini Competition in Genoa.\r\n\r\nAs he continued to benefit from the teaching of such masters as Zino Francescatti, Yehudi Menuhin, Nathan Milstein and especially from Henryk Szeryng, who considered him his \u201cspiritual heir\u201d, numerous concerts were to follow, and his career developed rapidly worldwide: from Europe to Asia and from America to Africa. He continues to perform worldwide today with the finest orchestras, and in the most prestigious musical seasons, including that of Radio France and\u00a0the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay.\r\n\r\nNo less than an eminent concert player, he is one of the greatest pedagogues of our time. Since April 2005, G\u00e9rard Poulet has been an invited professor at Tokyo's National University of Fine Arts and Music, after teaching for many years at the Conservatoire National Sup\u00e9rieur de Musique de Paris, as well as at the Conservatoire National de R\u00e9gion de Paris, and the Ecole Normale de Musique in Paris. Presently, he is professor at the Showa University of Music in Japan since 2010.\r\n\r\nIn addition to giving masterclasses all over the world, he is also a member of many juries of major international competitions.\r\n\r\nHe was awarded with the Officier des Arts et Lettres in 1995 and Commandeur in 2019, as well as the Officier de l\u2019Ordre National du M\u00e9rite\u00a0in 1999.","accomplishments":[{"text_accomplishments":"At the age of 18, he won the 1st Grand Prix of the Paganini Competition in Genoa."},{"text_accomplishments":"Since April 2005, G\u00e9rard Poulet has been appointed guest professor at the National University of Fine Arts and Music in Tokyo"},{"text_accomplishments":"He was awarded the title of Officier des Arts et Lettres in 1995 and Commandeur in 2019, and Officier de l'ordre National du M\u00e9rite in 1999"}]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salineacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/teacher\/4064","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salineacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/teacher"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salineacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/teacher"}],"acf:term":[{"embeddable":true,"taxonomy":"instrument","href":"https:\/\/www.salineacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/instrument\/45"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.salineacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4064"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"instrument","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.salineacademy.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/instrument?post=4064"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
