Eric Aron
Pianist, composer, improviser
Eric Aron was born 1961 in Cannes, France. From conventional and self-taught studies, his musical
activities have covered several areas: piano performances, writing, orchestration, conducting,
electro-acoustic music, computer assisted music, music for picture, and stage real time playing
technologies.
Many trips abroad have contributed to various musical colors (particularly Asian music). His writing
is also influenced by the many musical styles in which he is interested (classical, jazz, song, world,
well being, electro dance, electro ambient). He is currently developing a new concept of realtime
improvised stage music.
Eric Aron released about thirty cds since 1990, mostly in the field of music therapy (in collaboration
with the International Centre for Music Therapy in Paris), and has written more than 500 musics for
the image available in an international catalog of music used in 30 countries.
He composed symphonic and concertante works (three piano concertos, violin concerto, four symphonies, piano
pieces), as well as arrangements and songwriting, music for shows and events (the last in Tokyo in
December 2012), and collaboration with Ohira Takayuki, planetarium starball designer and builder.
To date, the implementation of planetarium shows concerts abroad (mainly in Japan), piano
concerts in total improvisation, music for the image, and a new discography are the activities in
which focuses Eric.
