THE STORY BEHIND THE SONG
La mélodie du coeur
A song from the heart.
I dedicate “La mélodie du coeur” to all musicians.
When I wrote this song, I was not searching for harmonic complexity or beauty. I simply sat down at the piano and let my heart speak.
01
From the heart
Music, for me, is above all a matter of the heart. It is also a way of opening ourselves to things we do not yet know.
With this song, however, everything seemed to be there from the beginning. No harmonic analysis was necessary. Its simplicity is part of its meaning: the music comes from deep within my heart and is meant for each and every one of you.
02
Musicians & production
The song was arranged by Marco Ciccone and performed by musicians whose talent and musical sensitivity I deeply appreciate.

The recording was mixed by Gérald Jans at Noise Factory Studio in Namur.

The story of the clip
The music video tells the story of a child who discovers music as though he had found a treasure — something beautiful that he wants to share with the world.
For me, this reflects the spirit of the song: music comes alive when it comes from the heart and carries something meaningful to share.
The child in the story is played by Manoah Moffa.
The clip was edited by Carmelo Carmusciano of Super 8 Media Company.
