Biography


Born in Asnières-sur-Seine, Florentz was a student of Pierre Schaeffer and Olivier Messiaen. In 1978, he won the Lili Boulanger composition prize, followed by various prizes from the SACEM and the Institut de France. His incessant travels to Africa allowed him to study ethnomusicology[1] and linguistic. He was a friend of Olivier Latry, organist of Notre-Dame.

He was a composer-in-residence at the Villa Médicis in Rome (1980–1981) and at the Casa de Velázquez in Madrid (1983–1985)

He died from cancer in 2004 in Paris.

He had been a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts since 1995.[2]
