Before discovering Baroque...

    Before finding my way to the Baroque style and the Harpsichord I already had a very busy artistic and musical life.
    I started to play piano at the age of six. Since the beginning  I had a strong interest to the creation and composition. Naturally as a teenager I started to study Jazz at the piano and at the arrangement. My trumpet player skills leads me to join Reggae and current music bands. Soon after I also started to play keyboards and Hammond organ in those bands.
  Later, I became passionate the steampunk aesthetics and I created the RETROPOLITAIN, a musical interdisciplinary project with theater and graphic art. The members of the band were the crew of a  imaginary train that transport the public to dreamlike and utopian destinations. The song rhythms were from the current Electro music but the harmony and melody are from the 1930's to get a Retro-Futuristic effect. Composition, graphic art, piano, singing, management... It was an ambitious and absorbing project !

    As I always had a strong interest for History and pirates stories, I had another project in mind mixing Reggae and Baroque for a pirate-themed band. I had a good knowledge of Reggae music, but didn't know much about Baroque music. That's how I started to learn harpsichord and Basso Continuo.  The discovery of the harpsichord and the Baroque and the pedagogy of the harpsichordist Marie Van Rhijn have been a determining twist in my career.

  The metamorphosis

    I went back to study at the Cergy-Pontoise Music Conservatory and graduated in 2020. During this period, I was lucky enough to evolve in a dynamic Baroque music department with great teachers (Marie Van Rhijn, Michel Quagliozzi, Jérôme Hantaï...). and I had the chance to join masterclasses and music workshops with inspiring musicians like François Lazarevitch or Stéphanie-Marie Degand. I played in wonderful places like the Chapelle Royale of Versailles.
     At first, improving my skills at the harpsichord and and studying the music treatises were my main priority, but soon my enthusiasm for the Baroque became broader and broader : Theater, Declamation, Calligraphy, Litterature, Cooking and over all Dance. I had the pleasure of been part of shows and lessons given by the Chrystelle Arcelin's Fêtes Baroque, a great immersive experience.
    Composition projects quickly emerged. The pandemic lockdown has be the opportunity to open a Youtube channel and to upload my first harpsichord arrangements. Today, the channel earns its first success and positive feedback from the viewers. I have decided to put the channel in stand-by to recruit a teams to improve the quality and the ambition of the videos. Chamber music projects are on their way as numerous harpsichord compositions.
    Immersion is for me a key-element as well as the smallest detail. I created a technique to produce music scores that look exactly like 17th/18th century copper plate engraving. I can combine my interest for the graphical art with my passion for the Baroque era. I extended this technique to make as well non-musical historical content as Coat of Arms, Ex-Libris, portrait...
