French composer and pianist Denis Levaillant is one of today’s major musical talents. Since 1973, this French composer and pianist, born in Paris in 1952, has managed to develop a personal, highly varied oeuvre, covering a vast range of expression (opera, ballet, symphony orchestra, chamber ensembles, choruses, soloists, electro-acoustic, radio pieces…), allying the rhythmic energy of jazz and popular musics to a new orchestral colour in the French tradition, appealing to all audiences.
