A charming , distinguished musical gentleman. I met him a couple of times in the early 1990s. He had an apartment in the town of Nantes, West France at the time. He had a long and artistically satisfying life and career. May he rest in peace.
R.I.P Jean Périsson , thanks for everything, you will be always with us, with my deepest respect and condolences to France .
