Jean Baptiste Loussier & Jody Sternberg - Back to Bach (2025) [Official Digital Download]

As often happens, the story begins with Bach at the Loussiers' house. Jean-Baptiste, one of the sons of the famous French composer Jacques Loussier, began learning the piano, music theory and Johann Sebastian Bach at a very early age.

This same Bach played at home by his father in a trio, in the jazz versions of the famous “Play Bach” albums this time, as if to show him that music had many faces.

And these faces become encounters. Not all teenagers are lucky enough to have a father who built the legendary Miraval studio, where Pink Floyd recorded The Wall next to the kitchen, with Sade swimming laps in the pool, and the Cure recording drums in the orchard when you come home from school…

Whenever he could, he would rush to the studio, keep a low profile in the recording booth, and attend the sessions. Enough to feed himself with his ears full of stars.

Later at the Conservatoire National de Musique de Paris and at the École Normale de Musique de Paris, he would have in his relationship with music this appetite for encounters, the curiosity to discover and explore beyond the score.

Pianos quickly became synthesizers, then keyboards, and then computer keyboards. The creative palette offered by digital systems allowed him to explore multiple facets of composition and production.

He composed the launch music for Chanel's Allure Homme perfume, which was included on CD in GQ magazine in Europe.
He produced several film scores such as the acclaimed Soldier's Star by Christophe de Ponfilly, advertisements for Armani and Fendi, and documentaries such as Sergio Leone: A Legendary America.

He accompanied Dani on several concert dates, and produced with her a stunning cover of Bizet's Carmen. The video was directed by Maïwenn with Laura Smet.

He composed a baroque opera around The Little Match Girl…

And that's how he met Jody Sternberg, a delicate singer, former muse of Morcheeba, who scours jazz concert halls from Paris to Melbourne with her warm voice.

He has already immersed himself in Bach, deciding to give his own contemporary vision, electronic and pop. A tribute to the composer and his father, who become one, a timeless guardian figure. Loussier Replays Bach…

She listens. She then writes lyrics that, once recorded, will give them a new dimension. The Aria has never been so sensual. Bach becomes pop again.
