About Me


« On sait, au moins depuis Michel Portal, que l’art de la clarinette et de la clarinette basse a pu être considéré comme une « spécialité » française. Au-delà de tout chauvinisme, la maîtrise d’un Jean-Marc Foltz ne pourrait qu’accréditer cette thèse. D’autant que la palette dont il dispose est enrichie et diversifiée de toute une histoire qui traverse les époques, les styles et les genres. » (Philippe Carles / Jazzmagazine)

« It’s well known, at least since Michel Portal, that the art of the clarinet and bass clarinet could be considered a French “specialty.” Putting national pride aside, Jean-Marc Foltz’s mastery can only give credit to this idea. Indeed, the palette he uses is enriched and diversified by an entire history that spans ages, styles, and genres.» ( Philippe Carles / Jazzmagazine)
