About Me

YVAN GUILINI was well-known for his world hit Winter Memories in 1976. It became a commercial breakthrough, more than 100,000 copies went over the counter for just only Belgium. This over 70 years old artist has a significant journey with his passion for music. Playing piano at the age of three, Yvan Guilini formed his own style and taste early. After the first public appearance at the age of thirteen, he received several offers followed with established names from the music world. At the age of eighteen he received his first "Hammond organ", the legendary B-3. This event boosted him to become "The King" of Hammond and play the bass pedal at amazing speed. Yvan Guilini created his own sound, a mix of classical and jazz. Following are some of his milestones: - In 1969, Yvan Guilini went on a world tour. He performed in no less than 28 countries. He was on tour with the "Dutch Broadcasting Company" with which he eventually recorded 2 LPs with popular jazz music. Once back in Belgium he received 2 prizes for his style and music. - 1977, Jazz Bilzen. His performance at Jazz Bilzen earned him a weekly radio program at national radio station. He played the music of the day in his own interpretation. Radio programme at BRT Radio 2. Yvan Guilini had his own radio programme at Radio 2 (then BRT) for 8 years. On Saturday morning - just before the BRT top 30- he played his own songs and versions of big hits of the moment. "Mélancolie" is a commercial, instrumental song with a very strong melody as we know the music of Yvan Guilini. Music right out of the heart to dream away. Mélancolie has everything it takes to follow Winter Memories.
