Thomas DENEUVILLE

About Me

Thomas Deneuville was born in France sometime between Stravinsky's Rite of Spring and Berio's Sequenza IX for clarinet.

He likes to talk about himself in the 3rd person when he writes about himself on Myspace. Even though he's totally aware that it's lame and it won't fool anyone.

Thomas could probably do a lot of things for a living but he'd rather be poor and write unpopular music - without ever being bitter.

Strangely, he possesses an odd number of socks that might be related to the Golden Section (see "Thomas Deneuville's musical output, the golden section and his sock drawer", Ralph Malph, Music & Letters, Vol. 97, No. 3 (May, 1997), pp. 242-252).

Thomas is blessed to be able to study composition and orchestration with Shafer Mahoney, piano with Geoffrey Burleson and tabla with Siddarth Mehta.
