TRAJECTORIES

Composition

Croene started composing rather late in his career. Starting with impro projects in the 2000’s, the release of the Piano Démécanisé LP in 2010 set up a series of projects in which he gradually evolved to composition. Now he writes mainly for piano (duo), using video (e.g. Eagle Finger) or conceptual settings (e.g. Roll over Czerny).

Now he writes mainly for piano (duo), using video (e.g. Eagle Finger) or conceptual settings (e.g. Roll over Czerny).


organ

As the first opportunity to earn a living when still a teenager, was as a church organ player, this instrument kept being important for Croene. In 2015 he published F.C. me Fecit (B.A.A.D.M., 2015), a dark meditation on the organ of the Sint-Pieterskerk in Ghent. On his Hammond organ he composed soundtracks for silent movies such as Häxan (Benjamin Christensen, 1927), Le Voyage dans la Lune (Georges Méliès, 1902) and Film (Samuel Beckett, 1964).
