Play Bach 4 is another in the series of digipak reissues with original artwork of Jacques Loussier's highly successful series of jazz-Bach albums. This volume won the 1963 "grand prix du disque francais" and is a close but not exact CD reincarnation of the original LP, right down to the original 28-minute playing time. Today this would be labelled crossover, with a jazz piano trio (Pierre Michelot, double bass and Christian Garros, drums and percussion) and Loussier dueting with himself by overdubbing piano and organ. Thus on the "Fantasie und Fuge g-moll BWV 542" the organ part is authentically Bach, while the piano trio improvise a lengthy jazz workout. Other pieces take a similar approach but remain more focused, and while the trio playing is tight and inventive it is sometimes obvious that the band and the organ occupy a different acoustic space, a facet of the production emphasised by the typically 1960s wide stereo separation. Anticipating Wendy Carlos's hugely influential Switched on Bach, Loussier's treatments are pitched midway in time and musical place between the neo-classicism of the 1920s and 1930s and current sonic postmodernism. Very much part of chic, swinging sixties France, Loussier's iconoclasm has had a seminal influence on the development of modern popular music. --Gary S. Dalkin
