  Laurent Coq
Welcome to the official website of Laurent Coq. Since the late 80's, through numerous projects conducted between Paris and New-York, the piano player and composer has created a highly distinctive music that reaches an ever-growing audience. Don't hesitate to download his first album, a live recording of his unique Blowing Trio, some never-released bonus tracks, and watch him perform in trio, quartet, at the recording studio, or with dancer and choreographer Toshiko Oiwa. Overall, take the time to enjoy his absolutely unique style and have fun !

Modern Jazz shows today a stark paradox with a generation in full creative growth -- notably in New York with its very vivid scene to which Laurent Coq actively contributes -- facing a crisis in the music industry with its increasingly formatted products.

If many up-and-coming musicians keep offering fresh and innovative music, you could say the same about the audience -- which you are a part of -- that is growing despite the difficulty in keeping this art alive on festival stages or on the radio.

Laurent Coq's music is one of this type, gradually making its own way no matter what. Having conquered the musicians and jazz critics inner circle, it now reaches a much broader audience.

This website is here to document precisely that.

Enjoy!
