Over three decades, François Bourassa has built many musical mansions. As pianist, composer and bandleader, he long ago became a leading international representative of Canada’s contemporary jazz scene. A paragon of artistic consistency and evolution, he continues to challenge himself, his talented musical partners, and his ever-widening community of listeners. From the initial downbeat, the François Bourassa Quartet communicates on a psychological level, soaring together to the highest realms of musical creativity and jazz expression via the emotional pathway of the heart.
