i love this ❤️‍🔥 An intimate and flowing improvisation — In the shallows feels like wandering barefoot along the edge of emotion, where each note gently brushes the surface of something deeper.
Francesco Adornetto.

I read your bio. I couldn't have expressed it better. You understand. When you can let go and improvise it express who you are. Anyone, anyone, could learn how to copy someone else's music, some better than others, but they have too much fear to let go and express their own emotions that comes from their own life experience. You don't have to the best technical player, but m knowledge of key sigs and timing helps. I look for people who improvise because to me that is the most honest music. Do you play in a certain key?  I seem to gravitate to minor flat keys. Do you know the langage of music? Could you write it ot if you wanted to?

Thank you for the wonderful improvisation.

a wonderful musical story! so captivating and engaging! bravo!

Here's the latest version of my Symphonic Poem Without Program. As the title suggests, there's no story behind this work ... or is there?

Symphonic Poem Without Program (work in progress)

“Confidence” est une pièce pour piano néo-classique, à la fois intime et profondément mélodieuse. Son atmosphère douce et introspective invite à un moment de réflexion et d’émotion pure. Entre minimalisme et expressivité, ce morceau déploie une mélodie qui résonne comme un secret murmuré au creux de l’âme. Fermez les yeux, laissez-vous porter.”

In collaboration with Francess Harris. She played the piano composition and I did the composition of the orchestral arrangement. Thank you for listening and enjoy. Any comment is appreciated always.

The Preacher

The Preacher (feat. Fr. Harris)

"Depth Over Ease" is a quiet rebellion against the temptation of simplicity.
This piece chooses introspection over decoration, silence over noise, emotion over polish.
Every phrase reaches inward, unfolding like a secret remembered rather than recited.
It's a piece for those who listen with their whole self — not for ease, but for resonance.

Close your eyes. Breathe with the tempo. Let it take you deeper than comfort.

Crillon Compositions is a deeply personal orchestral suite, born from a journey that began with musical sketches and youthful piano doodles at age 19 at the famed Hôtel de Crillon , and culminating in a sweeping symphonic vision as the composer clebrated his 35th birthday at the Crillon. These newly revised and recorded works honor the enduring influence of French classical tradition—Debussy & Ravel—infused with the modern emotional landscapes of the grandeur of Rachmaninov. From brooding chamber pieces to cinematic overtures, the album embodies the conflict and beauty of legacy, identity, and time beneath the marbled hush of a Parisian palace.

Track 9 Encore une Idée, Petite Symphonie en Trois Temps_III_Crescendo d’un Soupir

I make music because it is where I let go of the have-to’s, and become part of something larger than myself. The language I speak on the keyboard when I improvise expresses a part of me that only comes out there at the moment of creation - when I’m fully connected and in the flow. In those moments when I disappear in the music, those are where I’m most fully alive. The musical question I pose to myself when I play is largely this: how can I release my inhibitions and let go of patterns sufficient to bring something entirely new, unexpected, and enlightening into the world, with structure, precision, clarity, and depth of expression. These pieces are meditations that are of me, but more precisely, they come through me. When I’m in the flow, I’m channeling the energy and only moderately directing it. The challenge is to be open to take risks while maintaining a structure, melody, and tempo that makes it interesting and satisfying enough to keep listening. I keep doing this nightly because it’s a language, because it’s a connection to something greater than myself, and because it’s very very relaxing.
