Chez DAMASE

The Unofficial Website of Jean-Michel Damase

"What remains as one of the minor mysteries of the last half-centry of musical history is the fact that, for all the immidiate attractiveness of his compositional voice, the work of Jean-Michel Damase has remained such a
well-kept secret." Chiristopher Morley
from his program motes for Piano Music by
Jean-Michel Damase
