BIOGRAPHY Christine Mennesson

   Christine Mennesson trained at various regional conservatories, where she won several prizes (guitar, counterpoint, harmony, analysis), before graduating from the Paris Conservatory (CNSMDP) with a degree in composition and electroacoustic research (1985).

   She studied analysis and serial counterpoint with Max Deutsch and J. Richer, as well as spectral music analysis with Tristan Murail, followed by musical acoustics.

    Christine Mennesson then studied composition with Franco Donatoni in Italy.
