Eve Risser

Eve Risser (born 1982) is a French jazz and improvised music performer, composer and arranger.

But those desires were quashed by her instructor, who situated that sort of interpretational freedom within a larger, rigorous practice of study.

[3] She reported that "When I stopped the flute, I felt so limited in my improvisations with timbres that I started to explore the inside of the piano to be able to imitate trumpets, percussions and saxophones [...] I realized that building stuff with my hands for the piano was super fun.

[4] A reviewer described her playing on the 2012 trio album En Corps as being "anything but conventional, highly percussive, full of muted strings, extended techniques, and repetitive phrases".

[5] A Down Beat reviewer of her solo piano record Des Pas Sur La Neige commented on Risser's "arsenal of techniques and tools that transform her instrument into a kaleidoscopic sound machine, producing unexpected tones and timbres.
