Olivier Temime - Marcenay (2025)

Olivier Temime, a French saxophonist with a powerful and lyrical style, follows in the footsteps of Pharoah Sanders and Sonny Rollins, while having shared the stage with his mentors Wynton Marsalis, Johnny Griffin and Steve Grossman. Winner of the La Défense jazz competition in 1997, he has had a career since 1998, including ten albums, including Inner Songs (2023), blending groove, poetry and spirituality, alongside Oxmo Puccino and Stéphane Belmondo. Based in Burgundy since 2022, he leads workshops and musical meetings there, while preparing two new albums: a trio with Emmanuel Bex and Simon Goubert (released on October 10, 2025) and a quartet with Étienne Deconfin, Sylvain Romano, Antoine Paganotti and the spirit of Rahsaan Roland Kirk (January 2026).
