Philippe Bruneau RIP

Just had the sad news that Philippe Bruneau, a great master of the one-row melodeon, passed away last night. A great character, and a great musican, who taught me a lot…

showing the delights of a nice steady, not too fast tempo…
hope you’re playing for the angels, Philippe !

Yes, another great musician is lost to us.

Could get astonishing things out of the one-row melodeon. Yes, a great player indeed. RIP.

Repose en paix Philippe. Tu vas continuer a inspirer les musiciens pendant bien des années.
