Modern, expressive jazz

Baptiste Horcholle is a French saxophonist and flutist with an international career, recognized for his modern, expressive approach to jazz. Originally from Nice, he took up the saxophone before continuing his training at the New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music in New York, where he was awarded a scholarship. He also joined the Betty Carter Jazz Ahead program, a reference in the support of young jazz talent.

Along the way he trained with major artists such as Jason Moran, Dee Dee Bridgewater, Greg Hutchinson and Shai Maestro, and developed a musical identity at the crossroads of improvisation, contemporary jazz and current influences.

From the Duc des Lombards to the Nice Jazz Festival

Baptiste Horcholle performs regularly in emblematic venues such as the Duc des Lombards, the Sunset/Sunside and the 38 Riv in Paris, as well as abroad (Barcelona, Geneva, San Remo). He takes part in recognized festivals such as the Nice Jazz Festival, the Bern Jazz Fest and Jazz en Nord, and works with many renowned musicians.

Alongside his stage career, he teaches at the Conservatoire de Lille and develops educational projects such as the Rise! Sessions, to pass on his craft and help new talent emerge.
