[spoiler="Об исполнителе (группе)"]
Precocious pianist originally from Martinique, Tony Tixier attented the National Conservatory of Montreuil to study classical piano at the age of 6 and played his first live performances at the age of 7. Alongside the piano, he studied choral singing, harmony and classical counterpoint. He graduated from the Conservatory with honors in musical training at the age of 12 and at the age of 14, in classical piano under the supervision of Pascal Gallet. From there, he got to study jazz with Didier Levallet, then Malo Vallois, before attending the pestigious Bill Evans Piano Academy of Paris.
Tony played, as of the age of seventeen, with many prominent musicians. He opened shows for Dee Dee Bridgewater, Michel Camilo, Marcus Miller, Mc Coy Tyner, Elvin Jones, Bireli Lagrene, Manu Di Bango, Monty Alexander, Archie Shep and partnered with Nicolas Genest, Jérôme Regard, Louis Moutin, etc.
He started up his first quintet with his brother Scott, Nicolas Genest, Anne Pacéo and Joachim Govin, played with the Europeen Sextet of saxophonist Walt Weiskopf and performs ever since 2008 in the Brian Melvin trio (drummer of Jaco Pastorius, Mike Stern, BeatleJazz, etc.). He worked together with saxophonist Myron Walden, plays on a regular basis with Xavier Richardeau and with his brother, the violonist Scott Tixier, who lives in New-York, playing together around numerous jazz clubs in the USA.
In 2007, he is awarded in Paris with the Trophées du Sunside (The Sunside Trophies) for his performance with the Scott Tixier Quintet that is broadcasted live in the notorious French Jazz Club programme hosted by Claude Carrière for Radio France. In 2009, Tony Tixier released « Parallel Worlds », a first album in septet demonstrating an audacious orchestral writing that Tony describes as « a laboratory of sounds and atmopheres », thus illustrating his strong interest for orchestration and the music research.
In 2012, Tony released his second album – « Dream Pursuit », warmly acclaimed by the French critics, with some of the best jazz players from the new generation of american musicians (Justin Brown, Logan Richardson, Burniss Travis). In addition, Tony leads an intense concert activity in France and abroad, opening the show last summer for Herbie Hancock at the Clermond-Ferrand Jazz Festival.
