More about Raphaëlle:
Jazz was truly her native language. Raphaëlle was born to musician parents and started her career at the age of 17 by recording an album with Floris Nico-Bunink (Mingus, Billy Holliday) under the label Daybreak. After studying Jazz in French Conservatories, she spent a year in Montreal and another in New York City, to explore North American performing practices and write music.
In parallel to her jazz studies, Raphaëlle went to South India for more than 20 years to study Carnatic singing with Sarada Thota and konnakol with Ghatam Govindarajan. Then she received a full scholarship from the Wesleyan University, USA, and got a Masters of Ethnomusicology from one of the highest ranked universities of the world, specialised in South Indian music.
Her main collaborations include Nguyên Lê, Sophie Alour, Philippe Aerts, Prabhu Edouard, Olivier Louvel, Sajad Kiani, and she is also much involved in cross-disciplinary projects such as theater, dance and cinema. She is also very active as an educator and gives regular workshops all around the globe.
Raphaëlle‘s current projects as a leader include a duo with Philippe Aerts and her solo performance.
