David Bressat’s latest offering, “Après un rêve,” is a stunning arrangement of Gabriel Fauré’s piece, featured on the upcoming album “French Connection”.

“French Connection” revisits the timeless pieces of renowned French composers, much like American jazz standards, rekindling the melodies that have shaped our cultural heritage. This album presents eight beautifully reimagined French songs, including classics like “La Bohème” by Aznavour, “Padam, padam” by Piaf, “C’est si bon” by Montand, and “Et si tu n’existais pas” by Dassin.
Each track is masterfully transformed, offering a fresh perspective on these beloved tunes. David Bressat’s “French Connection” not only pays homage to the French musical legacy but also enriches it, creating an enchanting auditory experience for both jazz aficionados and lovers of French music alike.
