Mr. Alexis was a Seychellois musical icon who has made immense contributions to the Seychelles music industry. He was not only a composer musician but in his professional career at the School of Music, as an instructor and head of the music programme, where he  passed on his musical  knowledge and undoubtly touched many lives.
