Recently awarded during the last National Jazz Contest in La Défense, "Here Is My Hand" gets its strength in a freshness and always renewed power. His music, based on Pierre-Alain GOUALCH's compositions as well as on arrangements from works by such great composers as Thelonious MONK, Duke ELLINGTON, Herbie HANCOCK or Wayne SHORTER, is completely open on the world, from the Caribbean to Africa, but always in a definitely jazz aesthetic.
