AGATHE MAX

Graduate in Electroacoustic Composition, violinist Agathe Max, besides her collaborations with KURO, Mésange, The SEER, Kolophōn, Winter Ghost… works on different projects including music and sound design for documentaries, animated movies, short movies, theater, contemporary dance and art exhibitions/sound installations.

After training in classical music for 1O years, she graduated at the Bourgoin-Jallieu School of Music, France, in 1995. Later on, she was exposed to improvised music and to the experimental scene. Inspired by a world both enchanting and draped in darkness, she has developed a wide range of sound textures, unique and melodious, creating unconventional and magnetic musical pieces reflecting a personality in constant search of rareness in music. Her concerts are a musical gift to many festivals in France and abroad, with intrepid and fascinating performances.

In 2007, her encounter with the drummer and composer Jonathan Kane was crucial in leading her to collaborate with the record label TABLE OF THE ELEMENTS with whom she released her third album This Silver String in October 2008. It was widely acclaimed by the press and presented in tours throughout US and Europe.

Her electronic project  called OFIELD mixes environmental sounds with effects and loops, creating new kinds of soundscape for an imaginary land. This project was born after she graduated from Bernard Fort’s Electroacoustic Composition class in summer of 2015.
