My background

Mina Brisset
Music has always been my first passion, which I now study alongside cultural policy as part of Sciences Po's High-Level Artist scheme.
I was lucky enough to be introduced to music at an early age, first learning to play the piano at the age of 5, followed by music theory. During my teenage years, I developed my knowledge of harmony, jazz improvisation and counterpoint with a piano teacher who was as talented as he was pedagogical. When I was 16, I started learning a new instrument: the violin, which had always been a dream of mine, and which I’m still happy to play today, together with the piano. It was also at this time that I started composing more seriously, after years of little compositions here and there, and that I started teaching piano.
Since then I’ve been teaching to lots of different students, children, teenagers and adults, all of whom have helped me develop my teaching methods. I was able to extend this teaching approach through two voluntary internships: in 2022 at the music centre of Montpellier’s central multimedia library for 6 weeks full-time, and between 2022 and 2023, at the Arthur Honegger Conservatory part-time. I gave free lessons there, and also developed music workshops, including cinema and film music workshops, particularly for neurodivergent audiences. All of this has enabled me to develop my desire and my means to pass on music!
I’ve been able to exercise this passion for music in a wide variety of establishments. With private teachers, at a demanding municipal school, in a caring community school (La Lyre), at the Arthur Honegger Conservatory and as part of an online professional training programme (ThinkSpace Education), where I learned Sampled Orchestration and Video Game Music. For a year, I worked on a daily basis in the renowned Music Department of the National Taiwan Normal University (NTNU). Today, alongside my Master’s degree in European Affairs with a major in Culture at Science Po Paris, I’m studying film and videogame music at the Regional Conservatory of Paris, after a year at the American School of Modern Music, and perfecting my music theory at the Claude Debussy Conservatoire.
This varied background, with its diversity of institutions, methods and cultures, has only strengthened my passion for music, and my determination to learn it, to play it and, above all, to teach and create it.
