Lénaëlle Planat hails from Grenoble, where she began her violist's studies.  At the age of 17, she entered the CNSMDL (Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Lyon, France) in the class of John Stulz and Fabrice Lamarre for her Bachelor's degree, and has since taken part in various masterclasses, notably with Kim Kashkashian, Antoine Tamestit, Jean Sulem, Pauline Sachse and Thomas Riebl. She has also studied in Vienna with Jennifer Stumm during one year of international exchange.

Currently in the last year of her Master's degree, she won first prize and Clara Levillain Prize at the French national competition for young violists in 2023, as well as the prize for the best interpretation of the contemporary work. She joined the 'Orchestre Français des Jeunes' (OFJ) as co-soloist violist.

Passionated about chamber music, she co-founded the Misia Quartet in 2023, with whom she will study in Paris for the next years. They benefit from the teaching of musicians from the eminent Casals, Danel, Rosamund, Béla and Diotima quartets, and they perform together at the Lyon Auditorium, among other venues.

She is also involved in various interdisciplinary projects, and over the past three years has taken part in the creation of several contemporary pieces and choreographed performances.
