CHET
French trumpeter David Enhco and Swiss pianist Marc Perrenoud — two of Europe’s leading jazz musicians — bring to Arran CHET, their acclaimed tribute to the American trumpeter Chet Baker.
Through a programme of jazz standards alongside original compositions, Enhco and Perrenoud explore Baker’s musical world — a sound shaped by lyricism and light, but also by fragility, struggle and darkness. Rather than imitation, their approach seeks to capture something deeper: a sensibility, an atmosphere, and a way of listening.
Their performances are widely praised for their elegance, clarity and emotional depth. At the heart of CHET lies a distinctive musical dialogue, in which trumpet and piano move with restraint and intimacy, reimagining familiar material while opening new expressive space.
