Born in Mâcon in 1996, Mathieu took a very early interest in music, particularly the piano, starting to learn at the age of 4. He went on to study classical music at the Conservatoire de Mâcon, graduating at the age of 17 with a certificate of musical studies.
He went on to study sound and jazz/music piano at the Annecy conservatoire, before entering the Haute École de Musique de Lausanne to study keyboards for modern music and then jazz piano, graduating with a master's degree in jazz performance in 2022.
His experiences in Lausanne have gradually enabled him to expand his network in Switzerland and to play at some of Switzerland's major festivals (including Paléo, Montreux Jazz, Festi'Neuch, Gurten Festival and Zurich OpenAir).
Alongside his work as a musician, Mathieu has given regular private piano lessons, as well as occasional replacements in music schools (Blonay-Cojonnex secondary school, Boullard school in Morges).
His wide-ranging experience, combined with the broad spectrum of studies he has undertaken, means that he can adapt to all styles of music and all ages, while always retaining the fun aspect of learning an instrument. Having played and composed with numerous groups and artists (Valentino Vivace, Pat Burgener, Chemical Fame, Epoque Bleue), he places particular emphasis on the collective aspect and musical sharing, which are essential assets for playing in a group, but also for the student's personal development.
