Trumpeter, improviser & composer, Timothée Quost has been pursuing a career with international reach for several years.
An adventurous musician, his musical research stands at the crossroads of genres, clearing sound zones blending contemporary music, free jazz, experimental music, jazz, sound art…. He can be heard solo, proposing music based on close amplification of the trumpet, in his ensemble LIKEN founded with conductor Léo Margue, or in various formations ranging from duo to quintet.
Alongside tours taking him to the four corners of Europe, Timothée Quost has been committed for the past ten years to championing the dissemination of creative music to a wide audience, with an emphasis on rural areas. In addition to the VIF evenings, which for the past 10 years have offered an evening dedicated to musical creation in a small Burgundy village, Timothée Quost runs the Festival des Bruits de la Tête, a festival of all kinds of music, taking place on the Cézallier plateau in the Cantal region of France. This biennial event combines creative music with more traditional forms (classical music, chanson, world music, brass band, etc.) and is accompanied by sustained cultural action with local schools, colleges and music schools.
At Le Générateur, he performs the improvised duet performance Torno subito with author François Durif on December 19, 2024: more info.
