Philippe Servain

Imagine Paris. Imagine its cafés, its singers, its cabarets, its immutable romanticism and its unchanging soul. Now imagine its flagship instrument, one of those that make the identity of a whole city: is it any other than the accordeon and its infinite breath? Philippe Servain has made this instrument his signature.

Main catalyst of Philippe Léotard's texts for 18 years, Philippe Servain shows himself to be a melodic poet through the dramatic Cinéma of the powerful author. Pluridisciplinary, our composer also knows how to embrace the costume of the fiery Iberian during his compositions for Claude Lelouch's " La Belle Histoire ".

In the documentary film "Bernard Dimey, poet and why not? "by Dominique Regueme, the composition here is just as poignant, personal and moving, highlighting a delicate story through an orchestration based on piano, strings and accordeon, spearheading a style recognizable among all.

A multi-faceted artist, our accordionist shines in eclectic styles, but all touched by a similar grace, the passionately intimate mark that Philippe Servain transmits to the works on which he puts his signature.
