Accomplished musician for almost 30 year, I play French horn, piano and percussion instruments. Graduated from the National Conservatory of Bordeaux in French horn section, I played in several music ensembles (orchestra, wind orchestra, woodwind quintet, choir) :
Bordeaux’s Wind orchestra,
orchestra of the Soirées Lyriques de Sanxay,
NSO Symphony Orchestra of Abu Dhabi,
Emirates Community Symphonic Orchestra of Dubai and many more. I have a very strong experience as musician and can perform various styles such as symphonies, operas, movies music, jazz band, etc.
During my experience as music teacher, I organised several musicals:
Grease,
The lion king and
Aladdin. I have arranged all the songs to match with the level of the musicians. I also arranged several titles from piano to orchestra (for example
Songs of Spain of Isaac Albeniz) or from orchestra to small ensembles.
In parallel, I started musical composition. Regularly, I take part of composition competition in France and worldwide. I also collaborate with Clément Poirier, young talented film director, in two of his short films:
The Sandglass and
Nous sommes en guerre.
