Ma P'tite Chanson

Accordionist and bandoneonist Pierre Cussac has developed a musical language influenced by a variety of genres – classical, traditional and jazz – in which improvisation plays an essential role. An eclectic and creative artist, he composes, arranges and develops programmes for a wide range of ensembles, from solo recitals to large ensembles.

Involved in numerous projects, he collaborates closely with Agathe Peyrat, Fiona Monbet, the Symphonie de Poche, Deborah Nemtanu, Hélène Escriva, Harmonie Deschamps, Les Lunaisiens, Edouard Signolet, Virêvolte, ONCEIM, and others. He is also a guest performer with orchestras and ensembles (Orchestre de la Suisse Romande, Orchestre de l'Opéra de Paris – conducted by Gustavo Dudamel –, Philharmonique de Radio France, Strasbourg Philharmonic, ONDIF, Les Frivolités Parisiennes, 2e2m, Klangforum Wien, TM+), with whom he has had the opportunity to perform as a soloist.

Since 2008, he has participated in numerous albums and given concerts internationally at venues such as: Tokyo Forum International (Japan), Salle Bourgie in Montreal (Canada), Berlin Philharmonic (Germany), NCPA Mumbai (India), Hôtel Palmyra Baalbek (Lebanon), Jazz à Marseille, Festival Django Reinhardt, Café de la Danse, Opéra et Philharmonie de Paris, Seine Musicale, Théâtre des Champs-Elysées, Opéra Comique, Salle Pleyel, Auditorium de Radio France, and more.
