Frank Braley

He subsequently undertook scientific studies at university before opting for music: at the age of eighteen, he joined the Conservatoire de Paris where he worked with Pascal Devoyon, Christian Ivaldi and Jacques Rouvier.

[2] He travels and plays all over the world under the baton of conductors such as Charles Dutoit, Marek Janowski, Armin Jordan and Kurt Masur.

He also performs as a chamber musician or in recitals with artists such as Éric Le Sage, Mischa Maisky, Emmanuel Pahud and Maria João Pires.

In April 2007, Braley performed Ravel's piano concerto with the Orchestre français des jeunes, under Jean-Claude Casadesus's direction, at the Auditorium de Dijon, Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris, at La Rochelle (La Coursive [fr]) and the Opéra de Vichy.

In May–June 2013, he was a member of the jury during the entire session (from the eliminatory to the final rounds) of the Queen Elisabeth Competition at Le Flagey and the Centre for Fine Arts, Brussels.
