About
Léo is a composer, producer, and musician based in Bourges and Paris, France, specializing in film and media music.
He blends diverse styles to craft unique, detailed compositions, using innovative instrumentations to enhance each project’s vision. As a classically trained guitarist, Léo integrates a wide range of guitar sounds and organic instruments into his work.
Raised by a double bassist father, Léo began studying classical guitar at an early age, exploring styles like flamenco, jazz, and bossa nova. He performed with various bands at festivals and shows, both as a guitarist and singer. At 17, he earned his classical guitar degree and high school diploma, specializing in music history and acoustics, while studying with Rémi Jousselme at the Regional Conservatory of Tours.
He later studied modern music at Jazz à Tours and film music at the Yamaha Music School in Valencia, Spain, where he trained under renowned composer Ricardo Curto.
By 20, Léo had composed for various short films and media projects, earning recognition in competitions such as Score The World 2023 and the Ryan Leach Composition Competition in 2024. He then continued his studies in film music at the Music Academy International in Nancy.
