Founder of the Ensemble for New Music «Florestan-Eusebius», which he also conducted and for which he played the piano, he made its debut in 1983 at the «Musikprotokoll» festival in Graz. As conductor he worked with very important groups dedicated to contemporary music, including above all his cooperation with the «Nieuw Ensemble» in Amsterdam, which also played many of his works. His meeting with Luciano Berio, in 1997 in Salzburg, led to an incredible human and artistic relation which then grew into a deep and sincere friendship.
