BiographY


He studied trumpet, composition, orchestration and orchestral conducting at his hometown’s musical academy, as well as composition at l’Ecole Normale de Musique de Paris.
Writing mainly for brass, his style is influenced by the harmonic language of the French school (Poulenc, Honegger) as well as the rhythmic liveliness of American music (from jazz to the «repetitive» school).
He also works for Disneyland® Paris where he is senior orchestral tutor.
