"He is a killer. He plays on the violin like Coltrane does on sax." -- Stuff Smith

With a career spanning over 60 years, Jean Luc Ponty is a pioneer and undisputed master of violin in the area of jazz and rock. He is widely regarded as an innovator who has applied his unique visionary spin that has expanded the vocabulary of modern music. Ponty is joined by Wally Minko on keyboard, Rayford Griffin on drums, Barron Browne on bass, and Jamie Glaser on guitars.

Jean-Luc Ponty was last presented by The Shedd in 2011 as a member of Return to Forever.
