Alexandre Guilloux: Carl Orff Competition 2020 Ker Is

Alexandre Guilloux I am living in France and was born in 1992 in Pontivy.

I began to learn the piano and music reading at the age of 6. i practiced a lot this instrument until the College. When I passed the baccalaureat certificate, I didn't choose a musical fork and prefered to go in environmental studies. Then 2 years after, I finally entered a conservatory to finalize what I started before.
Now I am a piano teacher in associative music schools.

Composing since I am 15 years old, beginning with CAM and doing the

-Armolithae project with a friend, just trying to do musical creations destined to video games, ambient, films, other creations. Armolithae did around twenty compositions then stopped.
Now i prefer to compose for acoustic instrument.
-I learned the Breton folk music a few years ago, and I decided to adapt and arrange melodies for piano. I also did some composition with Celtic harp, cello.
-I learned (and praticing) some composition technics with teachers and artists (Philippe Mion, Jonathan Pontier, I also met Anthony Girard) seeing old technics (classical harmony rules) to newer technics (composers rules !) with a lot of non-usual utilisation of instruments.
-I also participated to the Montréal movie music contest (CICMFM) by composing a short string quartet
-I have a lot of non-finished project and composition and a lot of idea (including a quartet with a cithare, pieces for prepared piano, etc) but a lot of sleeping projects.

Awards/Certificates :
-I passed the CEM (french conservatory certificate)
