Claudio is especially known for his brillant tone, immense virtuosity and powerful playing. Since April 1987 he works regularly with Klaus Ignatzek.

Jean-Louis Rassinfosse, bass

Jean-Louis Rassinfosse, born 1952, must be the most sought-after bass player on the Belgium scene. His reputation as a musician of international standing was chiefly forged through his work with Chet Baker, lasting over 10 years. He has toured with George Coleman, Joe Henderson, Michel Petrucciani, Philly Joe Jones, Toots Thielemanns among others. Jean-Louis has an excellent ear for melody and is a master at inventing interesting walking bass lines, in short a virtuoso whose international reputation is getting bigger by the minute. Since 1988 Jean-Louis works with Klaus Ignatzek in different settings.
