Of Vietnamese origins, Huu Bac Quach masters a wide array of musical instruments, including the dan bau (single chord Vietnamese instrument), the erhu (Chinese fiddle), the quena (Peruvian flute) and the guitar.

In concert, he presents his compositions recorded on his first album, "On the Steps of St-Paul's", released in 2014. His music skillfully combines his Vietnamese and Chinese heritages to North-American jazz music. He performs his music accompanied by his quartet.
