Jean-François Verdier, born into a Franco-Italian family, began his musical career quite late, in a small school in the south of France. He quickly realized that music would be his world, and devoured all the apprenticeships he could get his hands on, without restricting himself to just one. He became a multi-talented artist: Conductor with an international career, artistic director renowned for the quality and originality of his programming, composer and creator of shows for young people performed in several countries, soloist with major orchestras and concert performer, teacher of several disciplines, notably at the Cnsm in Paris.
