Tomás Bordalejo - Composer

After three years of jazz studies at the Institute of Contemporary Music in his native city, Tomás Bordalejo arrived in Paris in 2005 to pursue advanced studies. He joined the Gennevilliers conservatory, then the CRR of Paris and the Pôle supérieur de Création Boulogne-Billancourt. His meeting with the composer Bernard Cavanna at the Académie de Villecroze was decisive for his career. Peter Eötvös, Pascal Dusapin, Edith Canat de Chizy, Yan Maresz, Philippe Hersant, and Philippe Manoury also encouraged him to consolidate his own language marked by an original aesthetic.
His work is part of a genuine compositional research marked by a constant dialogue with the arts, architecture, urbanism and philosophy. Each piece bears witness to a staging of the sound material and a new reflection on the modes of play.
Tomás Bordalejo is a laureate of the Banque Populaire Foundation and in 2022 he won the  the Sacem Prize "Francis and Mica Salabert"
