Jorge Rossy is a multi-talented musician from Spain, renowned primarily for his work as a jazz drummer, vibraphonist, and pianist. Born in Barcelona in 1964, Rossy garnered considerable praise during his years performing with internationally acclaimed pianist Brad Mehldau's Trio from 1993 to 2005, where his subtle yet expressive drumming style played a significant role in defining the trio's sound. Post his time with Mehldau, Rossy has increasingly showcased his prowess on the vibes and piano, positions from which he has continued his exploration of the jazz idiom.

Apart from his noteworthy stint with the Brad Mehldau Trio, Rossy has built a substantial career as a bandleader and composer, evident in his diverse and thoughtful discography. His more recent releases, such as "Puerta" and "Ventana," reveal a musician with a keen sense of compositional structure and an openness to explore the textures and possibilities of jazz music. Not only has Rossy been a mainstay in the European jazz scene, with frequent performances and live recordings such as "Live at Fasching," but he has also made an impact internationally, collaborating with a roster of esteemed artists and nurturing a rich, evolving musical legacy that resonates with both jazz purists and those new to the genre.
