In Paris, he has given numerous concerts in the prestigious Gaveau and Cortot halls. Alongside his concert career, he was founder and artistic director of "Nuits musicales du Rouergue" from 2003 to 2022. He is currently artistic director of "Piano Passion", a concert series held throughout the year at the Église Saint-Julien-le-Pauvre in Paris.
