François Chamaraux FR

François Chamaraux studied physics and mathematics in France. He played the piano as an amateur. In 2005 he moved to Brussels after receiving a PhD in physics. Since then, he shares his professional life between science and music. On the scientific side, he teaches mathematics and physics in secondary school and university. Through writing papers about science news and guiding naturalist tours around Brussels, he contributes to the popularisation of science. As a musician, he plays piano in various circumstances: accompaniment of silent movies (cinematek), dance classes (P.A.R.T.S. and other schools), choirs, theater, singers - and sometimes concerts solo with a more « classical » repertoire, from Bach to Messiaen. He also plays accordion and violin in various performances, mainly around traditional dance and music of Europe.
