Laurent ROCHELLE
He was a largely self-taught musician, saxophonist-clarinettist and composer, his eclectic and open nature, his taste for encounters, and allowed him to feel at home in every universe. Author of always original and very personal music, his compositions bear the mark of a musician influenced by classical music and jazz combining the rigor of writing and soft experimental fantasy. Strongly inspired by the artistic current of the surrealists (Magritte, Bunuel, Svankmajer ...), his music is often imagery and imprint of poetry.
