Eloïse Fares

Originally from France, Eloïse Fares is a second-year Harp Fellow with the New World Symphony.

She was a member of the Verbier Festival Orchestra before joining the Verbier Festival Chamber Orchestra, with which she toured in South Korea and performed at the Tongyeong Music Festival.

Eloïse has performed with the Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Orchestre du Capitole de Toulouse, Les Siècles, Geneva Camerata, Euskadiko Orkestra, with upcoming collaborations with the Sarasota Orchestra and North Carolina Symphony. She has worked with internationally acclaimed conductors including Zubin Mehta, Lahav Shani, Daniel Harding, Klaus Mäkelä, Gianandrea Noseda, Jonathan Nott and Tarmo Peltokoski. Her performances have taken her to some of Europe’s most distinguished stages, including Tonhalle Zürich, Philharmonie de Paris, Victoria Hall Geneva, Philharmonie Köln, Kursaal San Sebastián and London’s Royal Albert Hall for the BBC Proms with Les Siècles.

In 2026 she played at Spoleto Festival USA in two major productions: the world premiere of Michael Abels’ Rhapsody on Omar and the U.S. premiere of Scottish Ballet’s Mary, Queen of Scots. These engagements reflect her work across symphonic, contemporary and multidisciplinary repertoire.

At New World Symphony, Eloïse combines her orchestral career with a strong commitment to artistic innovation. In 2026, she conceived and created The Clock Strikes 2:32 PM, an immersive BLUE Project inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s The Masque of the Red Death, blending harp, chamber music, visual art, technology and contemporary music in an expanded concert experience.

Eloïse holds two master's degrees from the Haute École de Musique de Genève.
