Pierre Jodolwski was born in Toulouse (France) in 1971.

After studying composition at the Conservatoire of Lyon and IRCAM, Pierre Jodlowski founded the collective éole and festival Novelum in Toulouse. His work as a composer led him to perform in France and abroad in most places dedicated to contemporary music but also in parallel circuits, dance, theater, visual arts and electronic music. His work unfolds today in many areas and outskirts of the musical universe, he has worked on image for interactive programming facilities, staging and seeks above all to question the relationship between dynamic performance spaces. He now claims the practice of "active" music in its physical dimension [gestures, energy, space] as psychological [evocation, memory, cinematic]. In parallel to his compositions, he also performs as a soloist or in formation with other artists.
In projects, he has collaborated with Ensemble Intercontemporain, Ictus - Belgium, KNM - Berlin, Ensemble Orchestral Contemporain, New Ensemble Moderne - Montreal, Ars Nova – Sweden and Proxima Centauri. He also conducts collaborations with musicians, such as Jean Geoffroy - percussion, Cedric Jullion - flute, Wilhelm Latchoumia – piano and Jeremy Siot - violin for works and research on new instrumental capacities. He recently produced a trio with Roland Auzet (percussion) and Michel Portal (clarinet). His work led him to develop collaborations with visual artists, in particular, Vincent Meyer and David & Alain Coste Josseau. He also works with the stage designer Christophe Bergon on several projects at the intersection of theatre, installation and concert or oratorio.
His works are partly published by Editions Jobert and are the subject of several publications and video recordings.
He has received commissions from IRCAM, Ensemble Intercontemporain, Ministry of Culture, CIRM, GRM, Donaueschingen Festival, Radio France, Piano Competition in Orleans, GMEM of GRAME , Siemens Foundationand European project INTEGRA. He is also winner of several international competitions, including the Prix Claude Arrieu SACEM in 2002 and was in residence at the Academy of the Arts in 2003 and 2004. His works and performances are broadcast in key places devoted to contemporary sound arts in France, Europe, Canada, China, Japan and Taiwan and the United States.
