André Almurò

• Directing

André Almuro is simultaneously a composer, musician, radio producer, performer, teacher and filmmaker. From his early childhood in the music world, he began his first sound research in 1947 at the Club d'Essai of the Radiodiffusion française (RDF), where he became producer in 1950 (he adapted texts from Jean Cocteau, Pablo Picasso, Eugène Ionesco , Jean Genet, Gracq, Jules Supervielle...) then joined in 1958 the Groupe de Recherches Musicales of l'ORTF. On that time he met Pierre Clementi, at the age of fifteen years, with whom he developed several collaborations. He founded his own recording studio in the 1960s in which he produced artists such as Colette Magny. In a parallel basis, he created a large number of pieces for magnetic tapes and electronic operas in which he seeks a "ceremonial atmosphere of magic and incantation, with or without the support of a text." (Dictionary of Music, Larousse). He began teaching at the Sorbonne in 1973 alongside with Dominique Noguez and Michel Journiac, where he founded three years later, with his students, the group Son-Image-Corps where were born more than thirty shows for which he composed music. In 1978 he directed his first film, Cortège, shot in Super 8mm, and made more than thirty other until his death.
