I am a composer, producer and cultural manager with academic training in music composition, production and music business, including studies at Berklee College of Music in Boston. I founded Elektramusic Berlin, have produced more than 400 concerts and festivals, and authored a music business guide published by the French Ministry of Culture.<\/p>\n

The resources and consultations presented here are based on the materials and methods I use when teaching music business at universities and conservatories, as well as through my work as an independent producer and consultant.
