Ancien professeur de philosophie, en région Sud-Alsace, Jean Landras s'intéresse aux problématiques psychologiques et sociales de l'initiation artistique, en particulier musique et danse. Ayant pratiqué le chant choral et s'étant exercé au chant lyrique – ce que l'état de sa voix, entre autres, ne lui permet malheureusement plus – il est à l'écoute de l'actualité musicale, avec un penchant pour les claviers : orgue, piano, clavecin. Les concerts des artistes qui le passionnent, leurs enregistrements, l'écoute fréquente de France Musique, la recherche assidue de ce qui satisfait la curiosité d'un mélomane, alimentent sa vie culturelle de retraité. Il partage volontiers ses coups de cœur, son enthousiasme étant encore fortifié lorsqu'il parvient à le communiquer à autrui.
