About Me

Paris-born Edouard Brenneisen considers himself equally a guitarist and a composer. With a strong scholar background, having studied Jazz and Classical music in Paris, and on scholarship at Berklee College of Music, Edouard pursued his apprenticeship privately with such luminaries as David Liebman, Tim Miller, Lionel Loueke or Jean-Michel Pilc. He is committed to reconcile European and American Jazz aesthetics, and got a chance to expose people to his music in United States and all over Europe.
"Without gushing, Edouard is quite simply the best student I've had in the past several years. Also, he exhibits leadership qualities, something that I find rare in students his age. He earns with ease the respect of his peers, an admirable quality. [...] I would gladly share the stage with Edouard, and hope to sometime in the future. He is a comrade in the music. I can pay no higher compliment. He receives my fullest support." Peter Giron, bassist, educator
"Edouard is a high level player and composer." David Liebman, master Jazz saxophonist, amazing composer, Jedi Knight
Update: Edouard was just awarded the Harris Stanton Award for outstanding guitarist by Berklee College of Music
