Biography
Originally from Geneva, drummer Noé Tavelli (1992) grew up musically in both a European and American tradition.
After starting his curriculum at the AMR and the Conservatoire Populaire de Musique (Geneva), he studied with Swiss drummer Marcel Papaux at the Haute Ecole de Musique de Lausanne. In 2015 he obtained his bachelor's in music with a special prize for best jazz recital in 2015. In 2011, he studied with Ian Froman and Dan Weiss at the Drummers Collective in New York.
In 2015, he moved to New York where he obtained
a master of music at the Manhattan School
of Music under the direction of John Riley, Justin Dicioccio, and Jim McNeely. He was also able to follow the teaching of great jazz drum masters such as Jeff Ballard, Jorge Rossy, Dan Weiss, Ian Froman, and Eric McPherson. Since 2018, Noé has settled in Switzerland. He performs on the Swiss and European scene and is now following a master's curriculum in pedagogy at the Jazzcampus in Basel.
Despite his young age, Noé has already developed
a unique sound on his instrument, both
modern and imbued with the long tradition of
jazz drumming. He has had the opportunity to perform
alongside artists such as Dee Dee Bridgewater, David Liebman, Ohad Talmor, or Richard Sears, Florian Favre, Gabriel Zufferey, Nat Su, and Jean-Lou Treboux.
