Baptiste Trotignon Trio • JAZZ STAR
Baptiste Trotignon (piano, fender rhodes) ; Jerôme Regard (e.b, d.b) ; Raphaël Pannier (dr)
A major pianist of his generation, Baptiste Trotignon has long established himself as one of the leading voices of European jazz. An award-winning artist and a regular guest on major stages and at prestigious festivals, he has built a rare career shaped by high standards, curiosity, and a musical freedom that continues to reinvent itself.
All the more reason why we are delighted to welcome him to Toots Jazz Club for a club preview of his new album Art is Simple, to be released on 4 September 2026 on the Naïve label. Made up entirely of original music, this new repertoire is more refined, more contemplative, and at times almost cinematic, revealing another side of his musical world. For this special occasion, Baptiste Trotignon will perform on both piano and Fender Rhodes, adding yet more shades and colours to music full of elegance and space.
A precious moment, and a rare opportunity to hear, in the intimacy of the club, an artist more often found on the world’s great stages.
