Philippe Treuille is a French-American sacred and classical music composer whose work evokes “...power, the harnessing of music on a massive scale making profound words real and moving.” (The Millbrook Independent)

 

Philippe Treuille attended The Juilliard School and Northwestern University, where he studied music composition. He also studied at the Ecoles d’Art Americaines de Fontainebleau and was composer-in-residence at the Chateau Mercier Foundation in Sierre, Switzerland. His awards include a National Foundation for the Advancement in the Arts Music Composition Merit Award. His Requiem for choir and orchestra was premiered in New York City by the SymphoNYChorus. His Missa de Aqua, the second part of a trilogy of masses, was premiered in New York City by the Long Island Choral Society and Orchestra.

 

Philippe Treuille has composed music and had commissions for film, theater, dance, books, meditations and performance art, as well as for birth, wedding and funeral ceremonies. His music has been performed in Spain, France, Italy, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and the United States, at museums, concert halls, churches, schools and universities including the Rubin Museum, MoMA PS1, the French Consulate, Lincoln Center Plaza, the Château de Fontainebleau, the American Institute of Architects, the DiMenna Center for Classical Music, and at the Boston University Tanglewood Institute.
