Biography

Hetú studied composition at the Montreal Cons. under Clermont Pépin, in 1956. He won the composition price that the cons. of Montreal sat out in 1961. A study scholarship from the Canada Council enabled him to go to Paris for further study. There his teachers where Henri Dutilleux in composition, and Olivier Messian in analysis. Hetú remains faithful to a classical esthetic firmly attached to structural forms of the past. Hetú‘s Harmonic language comprises parallelisms and composites of serial, modal, or chromatic techniques. Jaques Hetú is a member of the Canadian League of Composers and an Affiliate of BMI Canada.
