Over the course of a remarkable career now spanning more than 40 years, Jacques Loussier has pursued a musical path that is completely unique. He formed his legendary "Play Bach Trio", dissolved it in 1978, and then revived it in 1985 to celebrate the tercentenary of Bach's birth. Since then, the Trio has soared from one success to another, turning out best-selling CDs along the way.

Drummer André Arpino, a native of Lyon, has also recorded and toured with Yves Montand, Charles Aznavour , Ella Fitzgerald and Dizzy Gillespie, as well as rock and pop groups. Born in Soissons, bassist Marc Buronfosse teaches jazz at the the Conservatoire National de Région of Paris and has performed with symphonic and chamber music orchestras. At present, he leads his own quartet.

Mr. Loussier continues to follow his own path, staying active as a composer of classical scores, exploring other genres, including live television broadcasts with such colleagues as Bobby McFerrin and Dave Brubeck, and creating the most exciting fusions in the world today of jazz traditions and classical music.
