Passionate about collaborations, she regularly shares the stage with Lambert Wilson, hip-hop dancer Ibrahim Sissoko, choreographers Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui and Damien Jalet, étoile dancers Hugo Marchand and Ludmila Pagliero, as well as the bossa nova star singer Toquinho (live album *Canto de sereia*, recorded for Aparté at the MiTo festival in 2017).
En 2005 elle fonde et dirige du violoncelle le Pulcinella Orchestra, une des phalanges européennes les plus récompensées par la critique internationale et avec laquelle elle explore les répertoires des 17eme et 18eme siècles sur instruments historiques.
After a double album dedicated to Boccherini in 2019, recorded with the collaboration of Sandrine Piau, Ophélie Gaillard and Pulcinella achieved widespread public success with a double album of Vivaldi, *I colori dell’ombra*, recorded at the height of the health crisis with mezzo-sopranos Lucile Richardot and Delphine Galou.
In early 2021, still with Aparté, Ophélie Gaillard offered a journey through 100 years of opera arias with her album *Cellopera*, accompanied by the *Vienna Morphing Orchestra* conducted by Frédéric Chaslin. The album features cello and orchestra transcriptions of works by Mozart, Verdi, Tchaikovsky, Offenbach, and Puccini. In March 2022, with *A Night in London*, she takes us on a journey to meet composers who ventured to London in the 1730s, such as Porpora, Geminiani, and Bononcini.
For 2023, the focus is on Naples with Sandrine Piau, Marina Viotti, and Luan Goes for a vibrant double album, featuring previously unpublished works by Porpora, concertos by Leo and Durante, gigues by Matteis, as well as traditional Tarantellas.
