about
Dedicated to interdisciplinary art, dancer and composer Jacques Poulin-Denis is active in projects that intersect theater, dance and music. After obtaining a diploma in dance from the Cegep de Drummondville, he completed a mentorship in theater under director Tom Bentley before completing his undergraduate studies in electroacoustic composition from the University of Montreal. His experience in various art forms has given him a great understanding and interest for collaboration in the performing arts. Most of his music was composed for theater and dance, notably with companies O Vertigo, Denis Marleau and UBU Theater, and choreographers Mélanie Demers and Katie Faulkner. More recently, Jacques has been exploring electroacoustic music performance, and his DRK project has earned a residency at the STEIM in Amsterdam. Jacques’ musical style is evocative and filled with imagery. Combining traditional and electronic instruments with anecdotic sound sources of everyday life, he creates vibrant music that is fierce and poetic.
