Astuces sonores

The “Astuces sonores” is a cycle of 15 short pieces in which I wanted to approach musical and technical ideas rarely presented in a repertoire intended for teaching.

It is also, in a way, a synthesis and an introduction to the idioms that I use in my concert pieces.

The cycle is dedicated to Sylvain Lemay, a major player in the promotion of today’s guitar music, and who has supported my work for over 25 years with Éditions Doberman-Yppan / Productions d’OZ.
