Recognized for his energetic playing, his great virtuosity and his deep musical sense, guitarist Jean-François Desrosby has displayed his talent on the stages of the world. His formidable stage presence, marked by his ability to captivate and fascinate his audience, is lauded by critics. A hand injury forced Desrosby to rethink his technique from the base. Extensive research in the fields of biomechanics and performance psychology have allowed him to pursue his career as a concertist. This knowledge also led him to a doctorate in the subject and inspired him to write the book Classical Guitarists: Unlock Your Potential! in 2011. The scientific aspect of his approach has been instrumental in the modernization of teaching guitar. It thus eclipses the more traditional method of teaching music often found in technical schools. Desrosby’s artistic approach is directly influenced by his close relationship with nature and his passion for the outdoors. Many of his musical ideas stem from observing the natural forces around him. The artist manifests these elements through the strong contrasts that characterize his playing.
