Airelle Besson Concert History

Trumpeter, composer and arranger, Airelle Besson has been noticed on the European jazz scene for her clear and powerful playing, virtuoso but never demonstrative, in the service of emotion and musicality. Trained in classical and jazz, she says she is influenced by both Bach and Keith Jarrett. Winner of the Django-Reinhardt prizes of the Académie du jazz and the Victoires du Jazz in the category "French instrumental revelation of the year", Airelle Besson is both a sought-after sidewoman and an assertive leader and composer.
