Initié dès son plus jeune âge à la musique classique, par l’étude du piano d’abord, puis par les affinités électives entretenues avec quelques disques des rayonnages familiaux, Erwan mène désormais de front l’exercice de la critique musicale pour Bachtrack et Diapason, ainsi qu’un doctorat de musicologie à l’École Pratique des Hautes Études. Soutenues par une bourse de la Fondation Royaumont, ses recherches portent sur l’Association artistique des Concerts Colonne de 1873 à 1910.
