Corentin Marillier is a percussionist, performer and composer whose musical universe lies at the crossroads of experimental, classical and traditional music.

Co-founder and artistic advisor to the Soundtrieb and Semblance ensembles, his work explores the cross-disciplinary links between music, performance and installation, and focuses on a post-instrumental practice combining both sound and visual elements. Working to decompartmentalize practices and aesthetics, he encourages both contemporary classical music and experimental currents, notably through a series of interviews with young artists that he has published under the name Conversations.

As a percussionist and soloist, he has collaborated (among others) with Simon Steen-Andersen, Cathy van Eck, Jessie Cox, Ariadna Alsina Tarrès, Jérôme Combier, Kasper Toeplitz, Bastien David and Emilio Guim, and works with IRCAM, the Fondation Royaumont and the Philharmonie de Paris on artistic and educational projects.

Since February 2023, he is co-artistic director of the Eklekto collective in Geneva, which celebrates its fiftieth anniversary in 2024.​
