Pierre Pasquier (violist)

Pierre Pasquier (14 September 1902 – 1986) was a French violist.

Born in Tours, Pasquier was a student of Maurice Vieux.

He founded the Trio Pasquier [1] with his brothers Jean and Étienne, as soon as he graduated from the Conservatoire de Paris, in 1927.

Pasquier's career as an international soloist was simultaneously complemented by that of an orchestral musician and music educator.

Since his childhood Pasquier also showed a real talent for caricature as a cartoonist.
