| "Some strong links have been created without
our knowledge. Manuel Maria Ponce (1882-1948) takes an important part
in my life. When I finished recording his complete edition for guitar,
60 years after his death, I thought about all the joyful musical moments
I lived during this long work and I thank him so much. " |

| Works... composer... | ||
| "I prefer being touched than being surprised."
This sentence of François Couperin (1668-1733) is now a daily rule
in my way of musician life. Among many chiefs of work of this great
composer, 2 of them belong to my musical listenings : Leons de Tnbres"
and his 2 continuations for viol. These works remain for me a marvellous
source of renewal of my inspiration of interpreter. |

| Testimony about strings | ||
| "I always privileged the tone and
the behaviour of sound for obvious musical reasons to sound power
of several brands of strings. With the SAVAREZ Corum strings I appreciate
this ideal balance between power, quality of tone and behaviour of
sound. Never I found the equal one to the depth and the behaviour
of "Blue Corum", they answer perfectly to my demanding requests. The
problem of the 3rd string (G) is recurrent. I use now the G blue Alliance
; the string is thinner and the transition with the other strings
is done naturally.I think sincerely that it does not exist the similar
string in the world!" |
