Le Monde Merveilleux de Pépito

Le Monde Merveilleux de Pépito is the quartet of trumpeter and composer Pierre-Antoine Savoyat, who recently shared the stage with a.o. AKA Moon and Stéphane Galland & The Rhythm Hunters. This quartet shares his colorful music and reflections on society.

Although the beginnings of this universe are rooted in Chalon-sur-Saône in French Burgundy, it truly blossomed within the walls of the legendary Sounds Jazz Club in Brussels. With the help from young musicians/friends based in the Belgian capital - pianist Simon Groppe, bassist Fil Caporali, drummer Oscar Georges -, Savoyat delivers organic and overwhelming music in which improvisation and reinterpretation are always at the service of stories, unique atmospheres and human emotions. The band released their debut Memories from a Winter Journey, an emotional album dedicated to his mother, in the fall of 2023. Newspaper Le Soir immediately recognized the album’s thoughtfulness and intelligence, praising its sincerity.

  • Pierre-Antoine Savoyat (trumpet)
