BUCCHI International Composition Contest in Italy. In 2002 and in 2006,
the Royal Academy of Belgium granted him three Highest Distinctions in

Prize. His work has been performed by the Radio France Orchestra, the
Solistes InterContemporains, the National Opera of Belgium, the

His music, on the one hand, combines the Eastern encompassing philosophy
and the Western logic-analytical thought, on the other hand, merges the
composition techniques of the past with today's. He is respectful to
all the Sages of the human civilization but he refuses to follow any
trends, it is by deepening in herself that one can reach the highest
artistic and spiritual level.
