Concert Information

Thierry Escaich
Composer, Organ


Composer, organist and improviser Thierry Escaich is a unique figure in contemporary
music and one of the most important French composers of his generation. The three
elements of Escaich’s artistry are inseparable, allowing him to express himself as a
performer, creator and collaborator in a wide range of settings.
Escaich composes in many genres and forms and his catalogue numbers over 100
works which, with their lyrical, rich harmonies and rhythmic energy, have attracted a
wide audience. Drawing from the French line of composition of Ravel, Messiaen and
Dutilleux, and imbued with references from contemporary, folk and spiritual music, the
distinctive sound-world of Escaich’s music is anchored by an obsessive rhythmic drive
and an overarching sense of architecture.
This very personal style encompasses both intimate works and large-scale pieces,
such as Chaconne for orchestra; oratorio Le Dernier Évangile and a double concerto
for violin and cello, Miroir d’Ombres. His first opera Claude, on a libretto by Robert
Badinter after Victor Hugo's Claude Gueux, was premiered at the Opéra de Lyon in
March 2013 to great acclaim. His most recent new works include a Viola Concerto for
Antoine Tamestit commissioned by Netherlands Radio Philharmonic and NDR
Elbphilharmonie, and Organ Concerto No.3 “Quatre Visages du Temps” which
received its European premiere by Escaich and Orchestre National de Lyon in
November 2017.
Thierry Escaich’s works are performed by leading orchestras in Europe and North
America and by musicians such as Lisa Batiashvili and François Leleux, Valery
Gergiev, Paavo Järvi, Alan Gilbert, Alain Altinoglu, Louis Langrée, Renaud and
Gautier Capuçon, Emmanuelle Bertrand and Paul Meyer. Escaich has been
Composer-in-Residence with the Orchestre National de Lyon, Orchestre National de
Lille and the Paris Chamber Orchestra and his music has been honoured by four
‘Victoires de la Musique’ awards (2003, 2006, 2011 and 2017). Escaich continues to
teach composition and improvisation at the Paris Conservatoire, where he himself
studied and obtained eight ‘premiers prix’. He is Artistic Director of the Mariinsky
International Organ Festival and in 2013 received the honour of being appointed to the
Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris; in 2018 he was Featured Composer at the Radio
France Presences Festival in Paris.
