Classically trained but equally at home in computer-based music, his compositions are melodic and rich in colour, marrying orchestral ensembles with the palette of electronics. Thirty years of experience, largely in the audiovisual sphere have earned him a deverved reputation as a leader in his field.
He has recently composed scores for two movies : La guerre d’Hollywood by Michel Viotte and Jusqu'au dernier by William Karel, and an album dedicated to and performed by master clarinetist David Krakauer.
He is also founder/president of the UCMF (Association of Film Composers).
In 2003, the revue Musique Info Hebdo named him "Personality of the year".
In 2012, he was awarded the Henri-Langlois career achievements prize.

Gréco Casadesus began his career as artistic director in the EMI classical department where he worked alongside the grand masters : Rostropovitch, Prêtre, Maazel and Bernstein whose work influenced and enriched his musical language and orchestration style. He has since composed hundreds of works for cinema, theatre, television, for chamber groups and symphony orchestra (read more in Bio)
