Today, Rouzier remains an influential force in Haitian music, serving as the pianist and a staff musician for the group Mizik Mizik. He is also a key producer behind the “Haiti Troubadour” CD series and a driving force at the young record label “Soleil Sound.” This label has produced works for artists like Belo and is preparing to release Nickenson Prud’Homme’s upcoming album.
Rouzier’s musical journey began at a young age, learning piano from his aunt, Marguerite Borno, a concert pianist in France. His career took off in 1984 when he started working with legendary figures like Hans Peters, Bobby Denis, and Patrick Dejean. By 1986, Rouzier was a founding member of Mizik Mizik, which quickly made a mark on the Haitian music scene.
His versatility as a musician is evident from his extensive discography, which includes three albums with Mizik Mizik and spearheading the revival of the “Troubadour Creole” style. Rouzier’s work has consistently blended musical innovation with cultural homage, a testament to his deep roots and respect for Haitian musical heritage.
