Eric Gaudibert

Eric Gaudibert (born in December 21, 1936 in Vevey, Switzerland) is a Swiss composer.

He studied piano and composition in the conservatory of Lausanne particularely with Denise Bidal and Hans Haug, and later in Paris in the Ecole Normale de Musique with Alfred Cortot, Henri Dutilleux and Nadia Boulanger. He worked notably in the French "avant guarde" in 1972-1974 in the Maison de la Culture of Orleans.

A former professor in both Geneva (since 1975) and Neuchâtel, he pursues a tradition lead by Béla Bartók, Arnold Schoenberg and Olivier Messiaen, and has over time developed a personal style embracing electronics and the media, poetry, visual art (specifically that by Paul Klee), and literature in a specific spatial, timbral and philosophical inquiry on music.

He lives in Confignon, Switzerland.
