"Stéphane Diamantakiou deploys his music in contexts of improvisation and interpretation, both in jazz and new music circles. He builds a personal repertoire with innovative timbral research mixed with different tuning possibilities. Solo, his music unfolds in dialogue, with the acoustic space in which he is located and with encounters which are like so many resonant coves found throughout the navigation. Overall, his sprawling research inspires innovative compositions with daring hybridizations.

Stéphane is the recipient of the François Marcaurelle prize from the 2019 OFF Jazz Festival, a grant holder from the Conseil des Arts de Montréal and the Canada Council for the Arts."
