Thomas Valverde is a french musician, pianist, composer, and electronic music producer.
He was trained in piano class at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique de Paris. Following this course, he publishes a first EP around Chopin, one of his favourite classical composer. Then the desire to connect his classical influences to his own creations grows. He produced his first electronic pieces and published a first EP devoted to these compositions. “Hyperbole” under the pseudonym of Kazian. At the same time, he continues his work on composers of the classical repertoire, which he combines with his own compositions in his solo piano concerts. He also composes for images and collaborates on several occasions with his brother Arthur Valverde (director): “Trois cœurs pour battre”, “Rave”, “A drop in the Ocean”. With Sébastien Van Kuijk (cellist), they form the duo “Ambassade” and perform notably at Kings Place (London). They offer a new sound that is at the same time psychedic, baroque, and tribal. Thomas is the creator and artistic director of the Biarritz Piano Festival.
As his experiences progress, he refines his sonic touch and is about to release his first album: “Vortex” An album of 11 original tracks dedicated to keyboards and electronic music. (Release scheduled for February 4, 2021)
