Antony Reynaert is an avant-garde composer, guitarist, and educator with a passion for creating innovative and thought-provoking music.

Musical Journey

Born in the coastal town of Ostend, Belgium, Antony's musical journey began with classical piano at the age of seven. His passion for the guitar was ignited at fourteen, inspired by punk and metal riffs. This led him to practice intensely and delve into the depths of blues, studying legendary guitarists like Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, and David Gilmour.

Antony's compositions blend free-form structures, seamlessly integrating elements of blues, classical music, and free jazz. His work transcends traditional genres, offering listeners an immersive experience that is both captivating and unconventional. Inspired by Zen Buddhism, Antony's music explores the interplay between sound and silence, evoking a sense of calm and introspection.

Artistic Inspiration

Drawing from various art forms and philosophical influences, Antony's compositions are deeply rooted in his quest to explore the spiritual realm. His innovative approach to guitar playing and composition challenges norms and opens new pathways for auditory exploration. Antony's latest album, Out Of The Blue, is the first in a trilogy focused on transcending human suffering and chasing moments of bliss through music.

Educator and Mentor

Beyond his work as a composer and performer, Antony is passionate about education. He is committed to nurturing the next generation of musicians, sharing his knowledge, and inspiring students to discover their own creative voices. After countless hours of practice and extensive guitar study in the US, Antony became a respected authority on music education. Today, he leads Belgium's acclaimed Gitaar Training Studio, guiding both novice and experienced players.

His goal in life is to introduce people to the spiritual realm through his music and help them understand free-form creativity as a life force.

“I believe we’ve strayed far from our paths as modern humans because we’ve been focusing too much on the physical realm. I want to point the way to the spiritual realm in a way that’s fun and easy to grasp.”
