Composer specialized in orchestral and cinematic music, with a strong focus on narrative, emotional depth, and large-scale structure.
Alongside film scoring, I write music for concert works, commissions, and stage, including orchestral pieces and ballet, approaching each project with a strong sense of form, balance, and dramatic development.
I have contributed music to multiple film projects, collaborating on soundtracks across independent films and documentaries, and I am currently involved in projects connected to art director and visual development specialist Virginie Bourdin.
My work is deeply influenced by the symphonic tradition, particularly Wagner and Beethoven, bringing a structured and dramatic approach to both concert and screen music.
I have also developed a full orchestral score synchronized to Sergei Eisenstein’s Battleship Potemkin, demonstrating my ability to sustain large-scale musical form and align music precisely with visual storytelling.
I aim to create music that enhances narrative, supports visual rhythm, and delivers a powerful emotional impact.

Original orchestral score composed and synchronized to the final act of Sergei Eisenstein’s Battleship Potemkin, conceived as a centenary tribute to one of the most influential films in cinema history.
The project was developed following a request to orchestrate and score the final sequence, with the intention of live presentation in a concert setting, requiring precise synchronization and sustained large-scale dramatic control.
These excerpts present two contrasting moments from the score, highlighting both the intensity of the climactic material and the structural continuity across the sequence. The writing focuses on long-form tension, thematic development, and detailed orchestral balance in direct relationship with the visual narrative.
The work has been shared privately with established film directors and industry professionals, including Neil Jordan, receiving very positive artistic feedback.
Original score for the opening titles of Marketing the Messiah (2020), directed by Cameron Reilly.
This 33-second cue combines piano, organ, and choir to create an intentionally intense and quasi-liturgical atmosphere, subtly playing with expectations to introduce the film’s ironic and humorous tone.
The music balances dramatic weight with underlying irony, establishing both the subject matter and the documentary’s perspective from the very first moment.
60-second excerpt from Hero, recorded with the Moscow Symphony Orchestra (2009).
A solemn and noble orchestral piece built around clear thematic material, strong harmonic grounding, and controlled dramatic development.
