Reviews

His music is lively and tasty like an old French red wine that leaves a rich aftertaste.
Riga Latvian presse
- about DOUBLE CONCERTO
Séjourné's Vibraphone concerto is a real gem, dense, rich and with a formidable seduction.
Luxemburger Wort
- about VIBES CONCERTO
The audience naturally immersed itself in his magnificent music.
National News Paper Bulgarie
- about DOUBLE CONCERTO
Séjourné demonstrates undeniable writing qualities in an invitation to travel. 3 evocative mvts : Gotan, Serenity, Sahara, borrow in turn to the Tango, to Spain, or even to film music : the lyrical flights of the central movement remind us of the art of a Morricone in the cinema.
