Claude Bolling was born in 1930 in Cannes, where he became one of the
most popular figures of the French jazz scene. He composed music for over
100 films, and he worked together with Duke Ellington, Juliette Greco, Liza
Minelli and others.
Claude Bolling was one of the first "Crossover" composers, collaborating
with classical musicians like Jean‐Pierre Rampal and Alexandre Lagoya.
Bolling's most famous work is the Concerto for Classical Guitar and Jazz
Piano Trio. It is the perfect synthesis of Jazz, Blues, Latin‐American and
Classical music, a unique creation of multicultural expression!
Also included in this new recording is the Sonata for Classical Guitar.
Performed with gusto and a free spirit by the wonderful musicians of the
Claude Quartet, with guitarist Duilio Meucci.
