I am benoit lefevre,
composer, producer and violinist. With a strong classical background, my musical experiences range from electroacoustic & instrumental composition, orchestration (I studied with both concrete music pioneer Roger Cochini and composer Alain Louvier), early music (I play the baroque and modern violins, the viola d’amore and the organ). I have collaborated with diverse folk, electronic, stoner - or more recently, death/grindcore bands, and I am passionate about French and European traditional musics. I live and work in the heart of the French countryside, in Lower Normandy. The close proximity to nature is a fundamental part of my work.
I launched in 2022 the project Auteyn, which is for me a space of creative freedom, combining written music, improvisation & sound experimentation.
First prize winner of the 2016 Oticons International Film Music Competition.
