Grâce à un réseau de centres d'artistes et d'ateliers répartis dans le monde entier, Yamaha travaille avec des musiciens de premier plan pour soutenir leurs performances et développer des conceptions d'instruments et de nouvelles idées au profit de tous les musiciens. Les artistes Yamaha partagent avec nous la passion d'inspirer la prochaine génération de musiciens et la conviction que chacun doit être encouragé à cultiver son talent, à se rapprocher des autres et à raconter son histoire à travers la musique.

A sentence that sums up your relationship with Yamaha and your Yamaha instrument:
I love my Yamaha instruments because their reliability and flexibility make them indispensable. Every day I'm impressed by the skill and attention to detail of the engineers who produced them.
How does your instrument help you in your daily life as an artist?
I'm a multi-reed instrumentalist so I rely on well-designed instruments that can function reliably, particularly in terms of their responsiveness and intonation. I love the clarity of tone, design and ergonomics of my Yamaha instruments — these features support me wherever it is that I play music.
How would you characterise your instrument?
Pure, clear, flexible and adaptable tone, without unnecessary frills
Who was your most influential teacher and is there any advice which you still follow?
