Patrick Dorobisz is a French Indie Composer (Not affiliated to a French institution ) but I have to mention by naturalization, not French born. In Fact, I’m the result of the migratory movements from Central Europe and the Baltic States before the second world war like many composers in the world. I’m European composer.:
Since more than 30 years Patrick produces alone his music breaking codes, borders between the different disciplines and different aesthetics.:
His new projects are ::
- New Realize CD:
