World saxophone congress, Las Palmas, Spain
Marie-Bernadette Charrier, one of the leading saxophone pedagogues and performers in Europe, will conduct my work HEAVY, composed in 2015 for saxophone orchestra and soundtrack.
With a jazzy touch, which seems at certain moments of free improvisation, this work has a solo saxophone interacting with the orchestra and electronic sounds. Hear the piece on SoundCloud 6-10 December 2023
