French jazz accordionist richard galliano"s records his first classical album ever His first album on deutsche grammophon is devoted to a composer with whom he has always felt close: "i began and continued my studies with bach. I played a good many of the preludes and fugues from the well-tempered clavier, the italian concerto and many other works..but as far as recording is concerned, i didn"t "start" with bach, it"s true. For me, this disc represents the culmination of 45 years of "all-terrain" musical experience." For this album richard galliano has chosen works originally written for cello, oboe, violin, keyboard and for flute, arranged them for accordion with the accompaniment of five collaborators: violinists jean-marc phillips and s‚bastien surel, the viola player jean-marc apap, cellist rapha‰l pidoux and the double-bassist st‚phane logerot
