Céleste has also devoted herself to playing on historical instruments for several years. She has played under the direction of Ton Koopman, John Butt and Christophe Coin and as a soloist in Bach's double concerto with Stéphanie-Marie Degand and La Diane Française. She will begin a master's degree in baroque violin in September 2024 in the class of François Fernandez.
