Что до французского композитора и виолончелиста Венсана Сигаля (род. в 1967 году в в Реймсе, Франция), то он известен в музыкальных кругах как пропагандист мультикультурных ценностей, отличающийся изысканным вкусом и недюжинной интуицией на таланты. Он начал изучать музыку еще в начальной школе, позже продолжив образование сначала в Реймской консерватории, а затем в Национальной консерватории музыки и танца Лиона. Уже будучи студентом, Венсан стал лауреатом нескольких музыкальных премий. В 1986 году он получил стипендию на обучение в Банфской центральной школе изящных искусств в Канаде, по окончании которой возвратился во Францию, осмотрительно переехав культурную мекку – Париж. Именно тут Сигаль приступает к экспериментам в различных музыкальных направлениях: неоклассика, джаз, рок, этническая (в частности – африканская) музыка. Сотрудничал с такими звёздами, как Стинг, Сезария Эвора, Элвис Костелло, Кезиа Джонс, Сушила Раман, Нана Васконселос, Баллаке Сиссоко, Ана Карла Маза и др.
