Sophie Lacaze (born 1963) is a French composer. Lacaze was born in Lourdes. She studied music at the Conservatoire de Toulouse, and continued at the Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris, where she received the Composition Prize. Afterwards, she studied with Allain Gaussin, Philippe Manoury and Antoine Tisne in France, and with Franco Donatoni and Ennio Morricone in Italy. She also engaged in music theatre with Georges Aperghis at the Centre Acanthes, and attended Pierre Boulez's courses in Collège de France. After having travelled in several countries, especially in Australia, she came back in France in 2006. Her compositions, which range from works for solo instruments to chamber and orchestral music, with also two operas and works with tape, are regularly performed in more than 20 countries. In 2009, she is recipient of the Grand Prix Lycéen des Compositeurs (France) for "les quatre elements", concerto for flute, children choir and small percussion instruments. In 2010, the SACEM gives her the Claude Arrieu Prize for her body of work. In 2012, she is laureate of Beaumarchais-SACD association. Unsubdued but attentive to musical trends and schools, she has developed an original aesthetics that takes into account the current research on sound while looking to restore music its primary functions, i.e. ritual, incantation, dance, and its links with nature. She teaches composition and orchestration at Montpellier University and is Artistic Director of the Festival Turbulences Sonores. ==Selected works== * (1992): ''Trois melodies'', for soprano voice and string trio.
