Composer from the French part of Switzerland, Thierry BESANCON is recognised for his soundtracks as well as his concert music.

Finely orchestrated with much command, his writing often impresses by its narrative structure and its atmosphere. Like a story narrated in music, his musical language creates at one time strong emotions and a cinematographic universe very concrete.

Translation by Barbara VanWoerden, Rui dos Reis, Jean-Philippe Heim.

"Thierry BESANCON is by now the most appreciated composer of his generation in the French part of Switzerland."
