Marc Perrenoud (born 1981) is a Swiss jazz pianist and composer.

Life and career

[edit]

Perrenoud, who is Swiss, was born in Berlin in 1981.[1] His first jazz recording was Stream Out in 2006.[2] The trio of Perrenoud, Marco Müller (bass) and Cyril Regamey (drums) released Vestry Lamento in 2014 after being together for 7 years.[3] It was their third album, following Logo and Two Lost Churches. The trio's sound was described by a reviewer for The Irish Times as "big-hearted, harmonically open music laid down over grooves from jazz and funk".[3]
