Born in 1984 in the Paris region, Charlotte Bletton took her first musical steps in Montmorency. At the age of thirteen, she moved to Canada with her family, where she continued her training at the Conservatoire de Montréal, in the class of Marie-Andrée Benny.
Returning to France in 2004, she joined the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Paris, after a brief stint at the CRR de Paris in the class of Claude Lefevre. She earned her prize in 2009 in the class of Sophie Cherrier.
A winner of several international competitions, such as the Maxence Larrieu and the Jeunesses Musicales de Bucarest, and a recipient of the "Rising Star Series 2011" awarded by James Galway, Charlotte regularly performs as a soloist in Canada, France, and Ireland.
Her talent has also led her to perform with prestigious orchestras, including the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France, the Orchestre National de France, the Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, the Paris Opera Orchestra, and the Orchestre National du Capitole de Toulouse. Since 2014, she has shared her passion by teaching flute at the Conservatoire du XIIe arrondissement in Paris.
In 2021, she joined the Orchestre National d'Île-de-France as second flute, also playing third and fourth flute, as well as piccolo.
The fall of 2022 marked a milestone in her career with her participation in Stockhausen's opera, Freitag, in the role of Lufa.
