Jean-Luc Ponty


Just finished listening to his Cosmic Messenger cd through the de Capo i's. Wow. Whomever was the recording engineer did an amazing job with the depth and balance and presence - helped by JLP himself.

Awesome job all around.

I went to school with his daughters - his oldest, Clara, is a fine pianist, and has recorded a couple of albums, though they are more "new age" than jazz. Both she and her sister Eva are very beautiful women as well. Clara was based in New York for awhile, but she may have moved back to Europe by now.
Simao, thanks for noticing about the daughters and the screen name! :)

Yeah, I think both of Clara's albums I know of were done in the mid to late 90's. Don't know if she's recorded any since - I know she still performs, but I believe mostly in Europe now. Her sister Eva is a yoga instructor, in Switzerland, I believe.

I think that Clara is on at least one of Jean Luc's albums as well - I know she used to perform with him from time to time.
