His marked interest for audiovisual arts and all forms of on- stage expression lead him to compose for several bands as well as for theatre, "theatrical music" and dance, as well as participating in many recordings.

Teacher at the Montreux Jazz Conservatory and at the Professionnal Jazz School in Geneva, he has also founded his own band,«Ian Gordon-Lennox Low Brass». They issued their first CD in 1999
