Who we are
Bertille Cascio
Director
bertille@origoarts.com
French-born, Bertille moved to the UK in 2019 to study the French horn at the Royal College of Music in London, where she graduated with a Master of Performance degree. She has worked as a professional French horn player in both France and the UK, performing with major orchestras in each country. In 2022, she co-founded the Festival de la Gente in Corrèze, France, a chamber music festival held each summer, which she now produces through Origo Arts. In 2023, she transitioned fully from music performance to production and promotion, initially working in public relations before expanding into broader marketing and communications roles within the classical music sector. Bertille also holds a Bachelors degree in Social Sciences (Public Action) from Université Paris-Dauphine.
