As a composer and performer: my philosophy of
music is simple and founded on one and only value:
honesty. It may sound cheesy so please let me explain.
On the one hand, a musician should always look forward
and search for new directions and experiments to do;
on the other hand, one must never deny his influences.
Far too much musicians belong to two opposing categories
that make no sense to me: some are stuck in the past and
some won’t even acknowledge the past. On top of that, a
musician, even ambitious, should accept that one can only
be good at one or a few different things. I’m tired of all
those people who pretend they can play, compose and teach
Flamenco, Jazz-fusion, Delta Blues, French Baroque Music and
Death Metal (and that’s the shortened version) on a top-level
when some of the greatest musicians spend a full lifetime
exploring the same style. Faithful to those principles, I just
work hard in order to be hopefully able to say one day: I’ve
found my very own style.
