In the beginning there was the piano. As soon as he mastered the basics he discovered the spell of melancholy while working on a little musical piece: an etude ringing out in the style of a somber hymn.

Then followed the album Ainsi de nous (1994), La Divine Nature des Choses (1996) and Rock de Chambre (2001). Just as many of his works recognized, popularized often by radio and television.
