Yves Ruhlmann began composing orchestral works in 2003. In 2008, a decisive turning point in his career occurred after a series of “blazing inspirations” that radically transformed his perception of musical language. Since then, he has continuously deepened this new understanding, creating works that push the boundaries of traditional music while honouring its roots. After 15 years of mathematical and symbolic research, he developed the concepts of Canticle Code Music and Symphonic Trance Music. These works are designed to awaken a state of trance in the listener, fostering a greater awareness and perception of the world. This immersive and transformative musical approach touches the body, the mind and consciousness alike. The first Symphonic Trance work by Ruhlmann, entitled Peace and Love, was composed in 2022. This 45-minute symphony is a true initiation, intended to guide the listener on a deep inner journey. For this work, choral parts were recorded in Sofia in 2022, thereby enriching his catalogue of Symphonic Trance compositions. In 2024, Yves Ruhlmann composed, recorded and conducted the Love and Gratitude Symphony with the Sofia Orchestra. This work for choir and orchestra goes beyond mere musical composition to become a powerful tool for energetic transformation, designed to awaken and elevate the consciousness of its listeners. Dedicated to the work of Dr Masaru Emoto, this symphony will be presented in Japan at the World Water Festival, bringing together more than 10,000 spectators in open air and 100,000 online participants around the world. He also tours with Trio Luname, an ensemble that performs his compositions, with himself at the piano, thus demonstrating his commitment to sharing his music in a living and interactive way with the audience. Since 2024, he has also been meeting his audience through intimate medicine-song concerts, where the voice, accompanied on the piano, becomes the primary vehicle for inner transformation.
