Some of the works that I have written for Franck Leblois and Commixtus have been  performed in 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 in France and the USA.


These include:

La Fée Verte (bassoon and strings) from the Delian suite on the name of Paul Verlaine

(the video of the section where La Fée Verte appears can be seen at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hI_1dNKZu3E )

The suite will receive its second performance (planned for) April  2013 in Angoulême.

A preview of the whole of the Verlaine suite, with the names of all the composers, is on the Delian Society’s site here

The scores are now available at Commixtus.fr


La Chute des anges rebelles (clarinet, bassoon and piano) performed at the Fou de Basson festival in 2009 (there was no recording, but here is an electronic preview).
