Pascal Comelade
Pascal Comelade (* June 30, 1955 in Montpellier ) is a French- Catalan composer and instrumentalist. He has attained as a film composer special significance.
After living several years in Barcelona, he published in 1975 his first album Fluence, which was influenced by electronic music and the French band Heldon. Later, he turned increasingly to acoustic music, where he, his compositions often on toy instruments, especially the children piano playing. His minimalist but expressive pieces are usually highly stressed rhythm and often have tango and waltz rhythms.
Pascale Comelade has z.T. also worked on his own publications with numerous musicians such as Robert Wyatt and Jaki Liebezeit. He is also represented on many compilations. The music of the younger by about 15 years, Yann Tiersen has in many respects a strong resemblance to pieces Come Lades.
In Germany the music Come Lades was last seen in 2005 as a soundtrack to Summer in Berlin by Andreas Dresen back stronger. The greatest recognition he enjoys in Spanish Catalonia.
Comelade now lives in Ceret, a small French town in the eastern Pyrenees on the border with Spain.
