Jean-Pascal Beintus has won global acclaim for his highly expressive and compelling compositions. Born in Toulouse, France in 1966, he studied double bass and composition at the conservatories of Nice, Lyon and Paris. When John Eliot Gardiner created the Lyon Opéra Orchestra in 1983, he selected Beintus as a founding double bass player. Beintus used the ensemble as a source of inspiration in composing his first work, Samskara, for double bass and chamber orchestra.
