After reading Gaspard de la Nuit by Aloysius Bertrand, I started composing a cycle of 5 pieces for carillons called Les Chants de Pierres (The songs of stone). It took several months and I never thought that the work would be played someday on a real carillion. Well, thanks to Jeffrey Bossin, it is going to be premiered this sunday at 3 p.m.

I have been performing solo shows in clubs, bars and art galleries since September 2009. It is a set of improvisations for electric guitar entitled Les Chemins de Traverse which enables me to bring several aspects of my work as a composer and as a guitarist to the stage. A entire concert recorded a few weeks ago in tmp.plate can be listened to on the “concerts” page.

I have composed and produced the soundtrack for Andreas Gräfenstein’s documentary entitled Eisern vereint which is about the soccer club 1. FC Union Berlin whose faithful supporters spent a year repairing and restoring the team’s stadium by themselves. It is a nice story about 200 guys prepared to do anything to save their team and it was a great pleasure to compose a bunch of heavy tracks for the picture.

You can listen to one of them called Eiserne Hoffnung (Hope of steel) in the Soundtracks section.
