Rue

Pierre de la Rue was a Franco-Flemish composer and singer of the Renaissance. His name also appears as Piersson or variants of Pierchon and his toponymic, when present, as various forms of de Platea, de Robore, or de Vico. A member of the same generation as Josquin des Prez, and a long associate of the Habsburg-Burgundian musical chapel, he ranks with Agricola, Brumel, Compère, Isaac, Obrecht, and Weerbeke as one of the most famous and influential composers in the Netherlands polyphonic style in the decades around 1500.

Simone is the first album of the band Rue de Tanger. Led by double bass player Pierre-Yves Le Jeune, the trio presents a unique blend of french traditionnal accordion and oriental rhythms. While being part of current modern jazz trends, Rue de Tanger stands out for the originality of its influences and the strength of its discourse.
