"Voyage dans un coeur brûlant"

Jean F. MATHIEU (solo acoustic guitar)

the audience are drifted into the musican's world, they hear him breath each one of his notes...

no distraction... only the vibration of six strings, directly from the composer to the listener... without artefact...

Own compositions

• major pieces as: “La Rage du Renard Bleu”, ”Herakles ducks again and once more”, “Dromadaire”,...
• recent pieces as: “Ombrelle”, "Llamas"...
• and various tributes to folk: Hungarian, Fribourgeois and imaginary lands...

following his VERY eclectic path, jfm plays his compositions in every conceivable orchestration. He writes instrumental pieces and songs, and, if the weather is fine, plays the blues for you in the city streets.
