Airelle Besson Quartet⎜Tryl

Everyone in the jazz world knows trumpeter Airelle Besson. A tireless explorer, she has taken on a host of projects: Quarteto Gardel, a duo with Vincent Ségal, arrangements for Metronomy… She chose the Arsenal to present her album, TRY with her quartet.

Conceived as an extension of Radio One, the creation of this album was a collective effort. The impressive cohesion and complicity of the musicians is the welcome fruit of four years of sharing the stage. Over the course of the 11 tracks, they have established an instantly recognisable musical identity and colour. Airelle Besson’s sound is soft, polished and full-bodied. With a trumpet timbre that is assertive, clean and distinctive.
