Patrick is a quebecois musician and composer based in Montreal. He mostly writes music for acoustic instruments, from solo to the orchestra, but is increasingly interested in improvised musical practices and makes more and more space for collaboration in his creative process. His music is simultaneously personal but designed to be shared, meditative but alive and intense, complex but direct, an object of contemplation but politically engaged. It is performed in the Americas and in Europe.

Highlights of his career include his collaborative work émettre un son, vérifier sa propre existence which was featured in the Picanto Festival of the Canadian Music Center in 2022. In 2021, Paramirabo, Vincent Ranallo and Jean-François Daigneault premiered his ambitious vocal work Lui. His piece Revealing was recorded in by François-Xavier Roth and the London Symphony Orchestra in 2020 and premiered by Susanna Mälkki in 2018 at the Barbican. He took part in the Generation 2018 Canadian Tour with ECM+ . His piece Le sel de la terre  was broadcasted on BBC Radio 3 in 2017, recorded by Thin Edge New Music Collective and awarded the 3rd Serge-Garant Prize from the Fondation Socan in 2015.
