Thierry Pélicant was born in 1957 at Sainte-Adresse, France. After
studying the organ and the horn, his meeting with Jean-Claude Hartemann,
the Musical Director of the Opéra Comique in Paris lead him to decide
to explore conducting. He was the student of Haremann for fifteen
years. He is the Musical Director of the André Messager Orchestre and
has also directed the Orchestre Philharmonique de lOise since 1980, one
of the oldest French orchestras, since it was founded in 1750. A
passionate supporter of French music, Pélicant reconstructed the Messe solennelle of L.V.A Boïeldieu and Te Deum of 1792 by Philidor and premièred and recorded the Suite Parnassienne,
Massenets last work. At the same time, he has also served the music
of our time in premièring or recording the works of Dazzi, Marchand,
Braconnier, Bénard, Drouin, Preschez, etc.
As a composer, musical grammar and stylistic debates only interest
him from afar. As a true gourmet (since cooking is another of his
passions), he strives to write the music that pleases him, that would be
enjoyable to play and which would be enjoyable to hear, hopefully with
real pleasure and in which he tries to express the emotions and the
pleasant or surprising states of being which, to hime, these works are
tied. Through this process, he has created concertos (for oboe, for
bassoon, for organ, for contrabass), Escales & paysages, ma monumental literary concerto for narrator, piano and orchestra, composed with his friend Dominique Preschez, Operas (Histoires comme ça, Ribouldingue, Élise et le fantôme) ; With the poet Luis Porquet, he wrote the song cycle Ombre légère (for soprano, harp and orchestre), Rhapsodie du Havre
(for tenor and chamber orchestra, a commission from the Forum de
Normandie to commemorate the 500 years of the founding of the city Le
Havre), Et de toi, Bethleem, Christmas oratorio for baritone,
chorus and orchestra and, finally, commissioned by the Orchestre de
lOise in honor of the centennial of the First World War 14, fresque de la Grande Guerre,
for the tenor Daniel Gàlvez-Vallejo, childrens chorus and orchestra.
In the area of chamber music, he has written a sonata for horn and
piano, for the Festival de Giverny, Borée, (quintet for oboe and strings), Sextuor dété, , and Milonga, (septet inspired by the World of Tango Music). Published in 2005, his novel Carnets de Walter Crane, explores the sufferings of a composer who has the obligation to write a string quartet ...
