Olivier Lalanne Flaneries Musicales de Reims

Olivier Lalane is a cultural entrepreneur, researcher, producer and music publisher. After working for institutions such as the Orchestre de Paris and as manager of the independent label Aparté, in 2020 he co-founded Le Philtre, a communications agency specializing in classical music. This structure supports artists and institutions in promoting their projects and devising innovative communication strategies.

In 2024, he also founded the Voilà Records label, dedicated to the rediscovery of forgotten composers. The label's singular approach lies in the articulation between in-depth research - in search of forgotten scores and unpublished manuscripts, while exploring the archives of the music press - and recordings meeting the highest standards of artistic, editorial and technical quality. With the conviction that little-known repertoires need even more energy to be brought to life than established masterpieces, the label collaborates with leading musicians to bring these forgotten treasures back to life. Among its flagship projects is the rediscovery of the Austrian composer Oskar C. Posa (1873-1951), which led to the world's first recording of his works, and to a distribution effort aimed at reintegrating them into the classical repertoire.

Alongside these activities, Olivier teaches music communication at the Sorbonne (Paris) and phonographic publishing at the University of Lorraine.
