As a soloist he has been invited by festivals both in France (Musicavoix, Musiques en scène, Musica Strasbourg, Présences, Musique Action, etc.) and abroad (USA, Canada, the Netherlands, Brazil, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Russia, Hungary, etc.).

His CD of solo works released in March 2000 by Grave-Disques Concord (works by Xenakis, Ballif, Aperghis, Kagel) was acclaimed by the press (‘10’ de Répertoire, ‘Diapason d’Or’, Le Monde, etc.). |
