My name is Rebecca Trescher, I am a jazz composer, clarinetist and bandleader, living and working in Nuremberg, South Germany! On October 25, 2019 I released my third album WHERE WE GO – music for large ensemble at enja records! I currently live as an artist in residence in Paris at the Cité internationale des Artes.
Great review in the DOWNBEAT magazine, June 2020 about my last album WHERE WE GO. Four stars for it!

With the release of WHERE WE GO, already her third album for large ensemble, she presents her work of the last two years. All compositions were written for her large ensemble concert series at the Tafelhalle Nuremberg. During that intense period of time that encompassed 13 concerts, she explored a variety of possibilities as a bandleader. Working with various guest artists – musicians, dancers, writers and filmmakers – provided opportunities for her to further develop her very own musical language.
Some impressions of the new dance video production!
Together with the filmmaker and director Moritz Müller-Preißer I produced three music videos for the upcoming album WHERE WE GO. The highlight and core of this work is the video for the title track of the album: In a dialogue with his alter ego, Kirill Berezovski symbolically refers to the artist’s omnipresent search for the “Where We Go”. The video will be posted on YouTube soon.
„INNOVATIONS“ Orchestral Works & Symphonic Jazz
Impressions from the Siemens Orchestra Erlangen Concert I composed four commissioned compositions for symphony orchestra plus jazz combo. The world premiere was in January 2019 in the Heinrich-Lades Halle in Erlangen. Thank you for this great project!

The ENSEMBLE 11 receives the Bavarian Art Prize 2017
The prize is endowed with € 10,000 and we are delighted beyond measure, above all the appreciation and the respect, the art minister Dr. med. Ludwig Spaenle expresses in his letter. The amount of work in Ensemble 11, both musically and organizationally, has now reached enormous proportions and requires a lot of strength and sometimes stamina. Thanks a lot!
