"Of the mark that a body leaves in the air
and the unchanging rock that soars into the sky

Sculpting the air as the sound sculptures silence
suspends time and opens up to the unspeakable"

           Throughout his peregrination, pierre fourré was nourished by french poetics and italian rigor. Open to diverse sensibilities, he has subsequently travelled extensively, particularly in India and South-East Asia, listening to what silence has to say to us.


Through the poetics of the body and the outpouring of inner song, he now affirms his quest for music at the frontier of worlds, reinforced by his experiences in the spheres of jazz, hip-hop and fusion, as well as his encounters with Tamil, Balinese, Mandinka and Aboriginal music.

Regularly awarded and supported by numerous organisations, his music has been performed by the Ensemble InterContemporain, the Aleph and 2e2m ensembles, the OLC, musicians from the CNSMDP, the KCB, and the HEMs of Geneva and Lausanne, and conducted by Léo Margue, Clara Baget, Kyrian Freidenberg and Jean-Philippe Wurtz.

He has also worked as a director or artistic advisor, notably with conductor Clara Baget, pianist and composer Charles Heisser, pianist Marina Saïki, and double bassist and improviser Jules Bauer de Milleret.



Percussionist, pierre fourré graduated from the Paris Conservatoire (CNSMDP) with a Bachelor's and Master's degree in composition.
