Aldo D. Platteau - A Christmas Journey (2021) [Official Digital Download 24/96]

Aldo Platteau entered music very early with choral singing, the study of the accordion and the organ, instruments he studied at the Royal Conservatory of Mons. He will continue his musical studies and will graduate in singing, early music, harmony, counterpoint, fugue, composition and composition of applied and interactive music.
In 1998, he joined the Namur Chamber Choir and the Quartz ensemble. He performs, in Belgium and abroad, as soloist and chorister in prestigious ensembles with which he will participate in several recordings.
In 2000, he was selected by the Royaumont Foundation, from which he received a scholarship, to participate in the international seminar of musical composition conducted by the English composer Brian Ferneyhough. His works are performed by ensembles Musiques Nouvelles, Sturm und Klang, Nouvel Ensemble Moderne de Montréal and by many soloists and chamber musicians. They are created in Europe and in the USA (New York). His Concerto for organ, cello and string orchestra was premiered in 2006 in Cuba (Havana).
His enthusiasm for electro-acoustic music with the use, among other things, of modular synthesizers and the computer, led him to compose and create the work, Lassus, enfant Montois, for the large Schijven organs of the church of Saint-Nicolas in Mons, the Choirs of children and young people of La Monnaie, cello, solo singers and electronic instruments - commissioned by the Mons Foundation 2015.
He also composes music for theatre and cinema.
With Benoît Giaux, he is in charge of the children's and youth choirs of the Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie. He directs the vocal ensemble Mezza Voce de Mons. Organist in the same city since 1994, he holds, in particular, the great historic Schijven organs of the church of St. Nicholas.
