Jean Francois de Guise was born on 15.05.1970. He received his first musical lessons in 1976 on the recorder. From 1977, the trumpet became his main instrument, followed by music theory, composition, piano and organ as well as conducting and singing over the next few years. From 1991 to 1996, he studied in Paris and elsewhere.

His teachers included Jean Langlais, Sergiu Celebidache and Rolf Reuter. De Guise was particularly influenced in his composition by the American composer Elliott Carter.

He worked for many years as a solo trumpeter and conductor with renowned orchestras before devoting himself almost exclusively to composing and teaching.
