About Jean-michel Veillon
Jean-Michel VEILLON est un musicien natif de FREHEL (Côtes d’Armor) résidant aujourd’hui dans le Trégor, près de Lannion. Danseur puis sonneur de bombarde depuis l’âge de onze ans, il a peu à peu délaissé cet instrument au profit de la flûte traversière en bois (modèle inspiré de la flûte traversière baroque). Au fil des années, il a élaboré un type de jeu à la fois très «flûtistique» et très proche de la tradition chantée ou sonnée en Bretagne. Son style parfaitement identifiable est aujourd’hui reconnu en Bretagne autant qu’en Irlande. De formation autodidacte, il puise son répertoire dans la tradition bretonne et gaëlique en général, mais il s’inspire également des traditions de flûtes orientales (Turquie, Iran, Inde,Chine…). Born on the North Coast of Brittany, Jean-Michel was first a dancer and then a bombard (old type of double reed oboe, typical of Brittany) player in his teens. He then started to play the transverse wooden flute, getting his first influences from Irish flute players, but then created distinct articulation techniques, more adapted to the Breton music. Widely credited with introducing the simple system wooden flute into Breton folk music, and primarly responsible through his intensive teaching efforts and hundreds of concerts and festivals appearances for its widespread adoption among many dozens of young musicians throughout Brittany, Jean-Michel has achieved widespread recognition as one of world’s premier traditional flute players.
