Le trompettiste néo-zélandais Lex French, salué par le critique de jazz de Radio Canada Stanley Pean comme ” un trompettiste extraordinaire “, est en train de devenir une étoile brillante de la scène jazz canadienne. French possède une voix unique à la trompette et joue avec une virtuosité technique et une inventivité musicale constante. On le compare souvent aux trompettistes légendaires Freddie Hubbard, Woody Shaw et Kenny Wheeler. Il est également un compositeur et un arrangeur recherché à l’échelle internationale et on lui a récemment commandé des œuvres pour orchestre de jazz, quatuor de jazz et quatuor à cordes. Son plus récent projet comprend des standards du canon du jazz, ainsi que des compositions originales inspirées de chansons folkloriques du monde entier et des arts visuels, le tout joué par un groupe de sommités du jazz montréalais.
