Music Style Romantic, New Age

Musical Influences Bach, Chopin

Artist History My music took its roots 44 years ago as I was 6 year old and dreamt of someday playing Bach and Chopin. My head full of humming musics, I learnt piano and organ mostly by myself. For many years, my main idols were two different organists: Keith Emerson and Rhoda Scott. I spent many years performing in piano-bars with a rather romantic repertoire. Now I just compose. Having focused for years on improving my way of composing, I wrote some articles from 1993 to 1996, and created some software interfaces running on Cubase, enabling to fully control synths and other MIDI devices for sequencing. My works were distributed and reviewed from 1994 to 1997, first by French magazines (Keyboards, Guitares et claviers, Musique & Ordinateurs), then by others in Japan and other countries. Though piano and composition have made up a source of exciting work and of great emotions for me by times, my life as a musician has rather been a hassle so far. I have neither any relation to any great name in the music or film industry, nor any diploma. I live from a part-time job in a towncouncil where I have done database developments on MS Access.
