Sophie Alour
A self-taught saxophonist, Sophie Alour has become one of the most sought-after
jazz soloists since her debut with the Vintage Orchestra in 2000. Joining the
bands of Stéphane Belmondo, Rhoda Scott and Wynton Marsalis, she went on to
record the albums Insulaire in 2005 and Uncaged in 2007. The musician with no
blinkers and no limits returns in 2010 with Opus 3. After La Géographie des
Rêves (2012), her fifth collection Shaker (2014) varies jazz, funk and rock
styles in trio or quartet.
