Compositeur - Arrangeur - Interprète
Coming from a culture of classical and jazz, Emmanuel Lerouge explores unknown territory in a new genre where esthetics merge: Electro, Contemporary, Jazz, World music, Improvisation-composition, Romanticism-virtuosity.
The Electro Project was born in 2015 with compositions mixing electronic sounds, acoustic instruments, keyboards and programming, first in the studio, released on CD as "DigitStorming" with Nicolas Prost, then through concerts across France : Paris (salle Cortot, Le Regards du Cygne, Saint Merry…), Hauts de France, Bourgogne-Franche-Comté, Limousin, Ile de France…
"DigitStorming", as well as Emmanuel Lerouge's second album "Circle" with Nicolas Prost (saxophone and wind controller) and Cédric Cyprien (percussion) are the two Electro-Jazz albums recorded in studio.
"Ault Electro Jazz Live", lasted concert, recorded in July 2023 at the Ault music festival, follows the previous "Onyx Experience" concerts . This fully improvised, immersive experience features both prepared electronic sounds and live performance on a variety of instruments, programming and keyboards by Emmanuel Lerouge and Nicolas Prost on saxophone and Sylphyo. It is available on Streaming platforms now !
Emmanuel Lerouge's pieces are performed throughout the world (Michigan, Ohio, Japan, Saint Petersburg, Majorca...).
He has also written scores for emerging artists, and with Nicolas Prost he co-produced the Saxiana Electro Booklet (published by Billaudot) and the 2017 Hélianthe award winner for educational pieces Mystic Rave (published by Robert Martin).
