Winner of the 2003 International Piano Competition Citta di Moncalieri, Antoine Didry-Demarle is the guest of many festivals which bring him to France, Switzerland, Belgium, Germany, Portugal, Italy, Armenia, Mali, Mauritius. In 2006, he benefited from the support of several private foundations and the musical sponsorship of Société Générale to carry out the Listening/Inventing/Partager project at the Bamako Conservatory in Mali. His tastes for nature and contemporary language naturally lead him to the music of John Cage, whose complete Sonatas and Interludes for prepared piano he recorded. The following year he founded the Duo Métamorphoses with the Italian pianist Andrea Corazziari. The two pianists appear regularly on Swiss radio and television in remarkable performances.
In 2010, Antoine Didry-Demarle recorded the CD Images Croisées for BecarProd, around the piano works of Debussy, Brahms and Liszt. Member of the Trio Thalberg since 2016 and of the Trio Améthyste since 2019, he now devotes much of his time to chamber music and extraordinary projects: for example, he recently performed the complete Catalogue d’Oiseaux by Olivier Messiaen in the heart of the Serpiano forest.
An insatiable explorer, Antoine Didry-Demarle is also an experienced adventurer whose expeditions, most often carried out in complete autonomy, have taken him to the four corners of the world.
