My first love story with music... Piano!

I started to play Piano in 1995 after meeting a friend, Julien Padovani, in an art class in High School.

Julien played the piano brilliantly and I was especially captured by the Impromptu Fantasia of F.Chopin. From this moment my attention was absorbed in the music. I immediately felt in love with the piano!

My mother bought me a keyboard and a year later we rented an upright acoustic piano because I was now able to play the First Prelude in C Major by JS. Bach.

In 1997, I won my first piano competition at a well known concert hall, La Salle Pleyel in Paris. After 3 years with my piano teacher, I enrolled in the well known creative arts school, Conservatoire de Tours.in Tours, France.

Piano is my primary passion. From studying piano, I learned a great deal about myself and musical art by practicing this instrument every day (5 to 8 hours) for 6 years. It was intense!! I think, though, if you really want to be a good musician, you must be disciplined with yourself. This is true for high level music and art in general.

Music is fantastic and it has added beauty to my life.

I love JS Bach, Chopin, Mendelssohn, Schubert, F Liszt, Monk, Bill Evans, Keith Jarrett, M Petrucciani, Glen Gould...
