During his studies, he develops an interest for improvised music and follows workshops with Yves Robert, François Raulin and Jean-Pierre Peuvion. He meets Christian Ivaldi, a concert pianist, Philippe Capdenat, a composer and Paul-André Gaye, a concert performer and a piano teacher with whom he goes deeper into his training in Paris. Jean-François Alcoléa is a pianist, a composer, an improviser and a stage designer. His shows reflect his plural worlds, combining music, sound effects, lights, stills and animations, street arts, dance, texts, and visual creations. “Jean-François Alcoléa is one of the all too rare musicians who leave an indelible mark in our minds thanks to their talents, of course, but also because of their charisma and sweet madness… one of those who restores integrity to creative work”. – La Nouvelle République (French Newspaper).He has presented his shows to renowned events and venues such as the International Zaragoza Exhibition in Spain, The French Consulate & French Embassy or the European Heritage Days. Since 2000, Jean-François Alcoléa creates and presents his own productions with the collaboration of high-skilled artists and technicians.Having an interest in history, ethnology, and sociology, Jean-François Alcoléa prompts it to focus on bygone memories, location showcasing, and in-situ research to produce unique, original shows, event scenographies, and walk-through experiences linked to a location, a theme, or a special event. He acts as a pioneer, revealing himself in 2005-2006 with his creation Allons enfants…, a show featuring the “Manu” (former manufacture royale d’armes in France) and spotlighting site enhancements and memories of the arms plant. Then, he has been inspired by the riverside Marina setting of Cognac, and assembled a collection of tributes by local inhabitants expressing affinity for their river. It went without saying that this reflects poetic evocation more closely than documentary. During the International Zaragoza Exhibition in Spain, he has created a musical video show that highlighted water and showcases the "Fluvial Aquarium," symbolizing the rivers of the five continents.Since Alcoléa created its own Company, he created 35 different productions.Photos: By registering for this event, you consent to being photographed and/or recorded, and authorize the organizers to use your image and likeness for promotional and archival purposes.Security Rules: Each person attending the event must have a ticket registered in their name and a government-issued ID that matches the name on the reservation to enter the Embassy.
