ramène ta trompette

In the last two years, this young group from Toulouse has been making enormous waves on the world of European jazz. 

They are six fine instrumentalists who have found the secret to great ensemble playing in the true spirit of New Orleans jazz. Joyful and energetic, the videos on You Tube of them busking in the streets of Toulouse have brought them tens of thousands of views and their reputation has soared. “Ramène ta Trompette” has even been spoken of as the “French Tuba Skinny”.

And why the name, ‘Ramène ta Trompette’ (Bring Your Trumpet)?

Let the band explain: "Like the New Orleans street music it plays, Ramène ta Trompette was formed on the streets and squares of Toulouse, and now spreads its wings wherever it is welcomed. 

Each time, the band invites a different trumpet player to become the orchestra's storyteller, adapting their musical universe to the centuries-old repertoire and style of New Orleans music, with its rich and elaborate recipes, as well as its share of individual and collective improvisation that gave birth to jazz."

We are delighted to welcome them to Fest Jazz 2026 !
