Originally self-taught, Pierre Hamon discovered medieval music, thanks to the recordings of David Munrow, when he was a teenager . Later he went on to advanced studies with Walter Van Hauwe on the recorder, and became a disciple of Hariprasad Chaurasia for  Hindustani Music and  bansuri flute.

He is co-founder and co-director of Alla Francesca, with which he has recorded around fifteen Cds and has appeared regularly with Jordi Savall since 1995. His repertoire ranges from the twelfth to the twenty-first century, and his curiosity has also led him to study various etchnic wind instruments and their traditional Repertoire.

Bagpipes
The bagpipes – also known as bagpipes – are a reed instrument whose air supply comes from an air bag via a wind capsule. Bagpipes were probably already known in ancient times. They have been documented in many European countries since the High Middle Ages.

Bansuri flute
The bansuri flute is played in India and Nepal. The word comes from Sanskrit and translates as ban (bamboo) and suri (melody). As a sign of its great age, it is considered to be the attribute of the god Krishna, who plays it in the circle of shepherdesses and thus captivates them.
