Life and career

Thierry Malet started to study the piano at the age of 7 at the Conservatoire of Paris with the pianist and concertist Marie-Claire Laroche,[5] where he took courses in harmony and composition. But it was to be a further ten years before he discovered his true passion at Claude Bolling's school,[6] writing film scores. In order to gain a fuller understanding of musical acoustics, he went to study acoustics at the Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers.

In 1986, he developed the very first MIDI digital guitar in Belgium with the RTBF laboratories. before moving to the Sheffield University in England where he graduated with a Ph.D. in bioacoustics [7][8] and architectural acoustic computer simulation.[6][9][10] Confident in this experience, he returned to France in 1994 and was soon to compose a number of original scores for television broadcasts and documentaries before going on to sign scores for French and American feature films. In 1995, he founded his own executive musical production company[11] in order to gain a perfect understanding of the recording business.

In 2006, he signed the original score of the musical film Imago which won the Golden Rail at the Cannes film festival | Semaine de la critique. He won the SACEM prize for the best film score[12].

gollark: Lithium ion batteries are already horribly explody, so it might be a step up for safety. In some ways. Ish. Kind of.
gollark: It would be somewhat larger and heavier, but I already have a somewhat large phone for the increased battery versus the average one (whyyyy are they so bad) so really it's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.
gollark: If you get cancer your shielding is bad.
gollark: It would be really nice to not have to deal with stuff like "charging".
