Jacques Loussier is a conservatory-trained French pianist whose
greatest musical successes have been as a player of jazz-crossover
arrangements, and as an arranger and producer for popular and rock
artists.
In 1959 Loussier founded the Play Bach Trio to play and record his
jazz-style arrangements of compositions of Johann Sebastian Bach.
Remaining faithful to Bach's original contrapuntal lines and harmonic
structures, Loussier wrote his arrangements for a traditional modern
jazz trio of piano, bass, and drums. He took as his point of departure
the Modern Jazz Quartet's famous Blues on Bach album.
In style, the 1959-1970 Trio's jazz was close to that of the MJQ or
Dave Brubeck Quartet at the time. It was a highly successful group,
whose four albums sold more than six million copies on the Decca
label. Popular interest in this style of music waned and the Trio
disbanded in 1970.
Loussier withdrew from the concert stage to compose and record his own
music at his home in Provence. His home studio was so excellent that
other musicians, especially in rock, wished to record there. Portions
of Pink Floyd's The Wall were recorded there.
In 1985, the year of the Bach tercentennial, Loussier revived the
concept of the "Play Bach Trio" by founding the Jacques Loussier Trio,
which consists of Loussier, Vincent Charbonnier (bass) and Andre
Arpino (drums). Recording for Telarc Jazz, the new Trio has released
successful CD albums of adaptations of Bach, Vivaldi, and Satie.
