Career Overview

About Daniel Thouin

Hammond's artist biography traces Thouin from classical piano and jazz study at the University of Montreal to improvisation study in New York. It identifies work as a jazz and pop sideman, session keyboardist, television music director, and director of Montreal International Jazz Festival tribute programs.[1]

Cal Performances documents Thouin on keyboards and accordion and describes the Large Ensemble he assembled in 2002. Hammond also places him in The Brooks and in Benoit Charest's live presentation of the score to The Triplets of Belleville.[2][1][5]
