Manon Mullener was born in 1997 in Switzerland. She is a pianist from a musical family. She started playing piano at age 4 at the Conservatoire de Fribourg. At 17, her passion for jazz and Latin music led her to Cuba, where she deepened her knowledge. Back in Switzerland, she continued at the Bern University of Music with Colin Vallon and Django Bates. In 2019, she recorded her first album, "Reflejos," with Peruvian pianist Cesar Correa and Zurich percussionist David Stauffacher, performing in Switzerland and abroad. In 2023, she released "Insomnia," the first album of her quintet, followed by a European tour of fifty concerts. Le Temps described her as ?the next generation of Swiss jazz musicians to watch closely.? Manon has performed at numerous clubs and festivals in Switzerland, France, Germany, Spain, Mexico, and Colombia. In January 2024, she played at the Havana Jazz Festival in Cuba, performing as a duo with Emmet Cohen, Dayramir Gonzalez, and Jorge Luis Pacheco. In 2024, she received a grant from the Canton of Fribourg, which allowed her to spend four months in New York working on her second album, scheduled for release in spring 2025. Her project was selected by the Jazz à Vienne festival in France to represent Switzerland, receiving support from the JazzContreband festival. Her next album STORIES recorded in New York will be out in 2025. http://www.manon-mullener.ch http://wijsf.org
