Duo Salque-Peirani

After exploring music from Central Europe with their first album Est and revisiting the works of Piazzolla and Gardel with Tanguillo, François Salque and Vincent Peirani dedicate their new album to the musical universe of Jean-Sébastien Bach. The reinterpretation offered by this fantastic pair is nourished by the mesmerizing and incredibly varied sounds of their two instruments, at the confluence of classical music and jazz, in perpetual reinvention.

Bach's works are the source of a transformative inspiration, the gift of an amazing sense of crossings, tasteful, cascading improvisations and evocative (re)creations. Alongside the traditional choruses, sarabandes and other preludes, works specially composed by and for the duet testify that, reinvested by such inspired musicians, Bach's music still has a lot to tell!
