Rebecca Trescher (* 1986 in Tübingen ) is a German jazz musician ( clarinets , arrangement and composition ).

Live and act

Trescher, who initially received classical clarinet lessons and played in the Young Symphony in Reutlingen , discovered jazz through a jazz combo at high school. From 2008 to 2013 she studied at the Nuremberg University of Music , where she completed a diploma as a music teacher in the field of clarinet and an artistic diploma in the main subject of jazz clarinet. From 2010 to 2015 an additional course in jazz composition and a master’s degree followed.

Since 2009 she has been leading various of her own successful ensembles, with whom she has released several albums and performed on international concert stages, for example at the Jazzfest Bonn , Jazzahead (Bremen), Xjazz (Berlin), Jazzwoche Burghausen or Porgy & Bess (Vienna).

In 2017 she composed a 120-minute concert music for the silent film epic October by Sergei Eisenstein for an eleven-member chamber ensemble for the city of Nuremberg as part of a composition commission . A year later she composed four works for symphony orchestra plus jazz combo for the Siemens Orchestra Erlangen . The review describes the clarinetist's compositional style and the complexity of her music with “diverse mix of timbres between musical experiment and symphonic melodious sound” ( Jazzpodium ). For the Nürnberger Nachrichten , the "boundaries between well-composed, well-arranged art music and inspired improvisation spontaneously drawn from the moment (...) are blurred very casually".
