Experience Jean-Pierre Como live on July 6th

Jean-Pierre Como, a French composer and pianist known for his minimalist and atmospheric works often incorporating prepared piano and explorations of timbre, will perform at the National Conservatory Regional Influence Pierre Barbizet in Marseille on July 6, 2026. His compositions frequently blend contemporary classical techniques with elements of jazz and improvisation, resulting in pieces characterized by subtle harmonic shifts and textural complexity.

The National Conservatory Regional Influence Pierre Barbizet (Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Marseille – site de Barbizet) holds significant historical importance as one of France’s oldest music conservatories. Originally founded in 1886 as a municipal school of music, it became a conservatory in 1919 and was later named in honour of Pierre Barbizet, a prominent Marseillais musician and benefactor who significantly contributed to its development. The Barbizet site specifically focuses on advanced musical training, offering programs in various disciplines including instrumental performance, composition, and vocal arts. The building itself is noted for its architectural features reflecting late 19th-century design. It serves as a key cultural institution within the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region.
