Jean Francois de Guise was born on May 15th, 1970. He received his first musical lessons in 1976 in the subject of recorder. From 1977 the trumpet became his main instrument, to which the subjects music theory, composition, piano and organ as well as the subjects conducting and singing were added over the next few years. From 1991 to 1996 he studied in Paris, among other places.

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

For many years he worked as a solo trumpeter and conductor with well-known orchestras before he devoted himself almost exclusively to composition and teaching.

The compositional oeuvre de Guise ‘comprises around 450 works, including 4 operas and 32 orchestral concerts.
