Till Brönner

A trumpeter, singer, composer and producer, Till Brönner (b. 1971) embraces a variety of roles, ranging from bebop and fusion-influenced jazz to the jazz pop permitted by his crooner's voice. After his debut album, Generations of Jazz, released in 1993, the German musician went on to collaborate with Dave Brubeck, Ray Brown, Joachim Kühn, Natalie Cole and Nils Landgren, pursuing a flourishing career both at home and abroad. The album Midnight (1997), recorded with Michael Brecker, was followed by cascading successes: Blue-Eyed Soul (2002), That Summer (2004, best-selling German jazz album) and Oceana (2006), featuring Madeleine Peyroux and Carla Bruni. After the inevitable Christmas Album (2007), which became one of his bestsellers, came Rio (2008), on which Till Brönner invited Brazilian stars such as Vanessa da Mata, Luciana Souza, Sergio Mendes and Milton Nascimento, as well as Annie Lennox, Melody Gardot, Aimee Mann and Kurt Elling. Subsequent albums, At the End of the Day (2010) and Till Brönner (2012), are both critically acclaimed. The Movie Album (2014) explores the great themes of cinema, followed by the jazz standards of The Good Life (2016).
