Multi-Grammy Award nominee, violinist Philippe Quint is internationally recognized for his unique and insightful approach to standard repertoire, championing and rediscovering neglected repertoire and embarking on imaginative, exciting journeys of explorations and collaborations with artists of different genres.
I had the pleasure of speaking with Philippe on this episode of the Classical Post podcast. We discuss his fabulous album, Chaplin’s Smile, that commemorates the 130th anniversary of Charlie Chaplin’s birth. The recording now has over 600K plays on Spotify.
We talk about how he finds deep inspiration to create his art, where to find the best sushi in New York, and his keen interest in the metaverse. Finally, learn about his fascinating new project, Astor Piazzolla at 100: Between Angels and Demons.

📣 Free Masterclass for Artists
If you’ve enjoyed this conversation, I’d love to share something I created that expands on many of the ideas we explore here on Classical Post.
I recorded a free Masterclass designed specifically for classical musicians who want to:
✅ Book more concerts
✅ Increase their performance fees
✅ Build visibility with presenters, agents, and collaborators
This is the same visibility strategy I’ve used in my work with artists at Gold Sound Media—approaches that have helped them land major engagements and grow their careers in meaningful, measurable ways.
📩 Enter your email below and I’ll send you the link to watch the Masterclass on YouTube.
It’s practical, actionable, and designed for artists who are ready to stop waiting and start being seen.
