He is also a unique artist who made his debut on the ALPHA label with a bagpipe album featuring traditional music from central and southern France. While he delivers traverso performances that vividly capture the essence of flute works by Bach, Telemann, and others, he also engages with Irish music on period instrumentsmaking him an artist whose every album is a must-listen.
