Thank you Claude for all that you have brought to the world of accordion, for these great and beautiful unforgettable moments shared at the CNIMA and your exceptional concerts that made us cry with emotion. On behalf of the accordion, accordionists and all musicians, thank you. You will be forever in our thoughts and hearts. The beautiful notes of your compositions where melody and harmony are of the finest taste will continue to resonate in CNIMA and the world.” Claude was also the conductor of the Orchestre d'Accordéons de Savoie (Savoie Accordion Orchestra) for many years.
