Jean-Luc Fafchamps (°1960), is the key member of the reputed ICTUS ensemble as well as its pianist. He's also one of Belgium's foremost contemporary composers, invited to many international festivals (Brussels, Paris, Vilnius, Warsaw, Budapest...). Whereas the piano was pre-eminent in his early works, he later explored non-tempered harmonies and the polyphony of timbres and this led him to work with various formats of chamber ensembles and symphony orchestras.
