Bernard Soustrot (born 3 September 1954) is a French classical trumpeter. He is the brother of conductor Marc Soustrot.
Born in Lyon, Soustrot entered the Conservatoire de Lyon at the age of 9, in classes of trumpet and cornet; four years later, he obtained a gold medal of trumpet, cornet and solfeggio. In 1970, he became a student of Maurice André at the Conservatoire de Paris. He was awarded various prizes, including in 1975 the first Trumpet Prize and won several renowned competitions, including Prague in 1974 and Geneva in 1975. In 1976 he won the first prize in the Maurice André contest.
He began his career in 1975 as a solo trumpeter in the Stuttgart Radio Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Sergiu Celibidache, then in 1976 at the Orchestre philharmonique de Radio France under the direction of Gilbert Amy.
1981 marks the beginning of his career as an international soloist, often associated with a pipe organ. He has been regularly working with Jean Dekyndt , [1] director of the Conservatoire de Toulouse since 1979, and François-Henri Houbart. He has collaborated with notable conductors such as Karl Münchinger, Seiji Ozawa and Karl Richter.
Happy in his art, he tries to share it through master classes. He created competitions like Prestige de la trompette de Guebwiller , or Concours international de quintettes de cuivres de Narbonne . He was a professor at the Conservatoire de Boulogne-Billancourt and that of Perpignan from 1998 to 2016.
Since 2015, he has been artistic director of the Occitania chamber Orchestra. [2] [3]
He was made a chevalier of the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in 2011.
Merri Jean Baptiste Franquin was a French trumpeter, cornetist, and flugelhornist who was professor of trumpet at the Conservatoire de Paris from 1894 until 1925. Franquin was a teacher of Eugène Foveau (1886–1957) who became professor of cornet at the Paris Conservatory in 1925. Georges Mager (1885–1950), who was principal trumpet of the Boston Symphony Orchestra from 1919 until 1950, studied in the cornet class under Joseph Mellet, but seems to have been influenced as well by the teachings of Franquin; Mager may have studied with him informally and certainly worked with several of his successful students. Franquin's collaboration with Romanian composer Georges Enescu (1881–1955) led to the composition in 1906 of Légende, one of the great twentieth-century works for solo trumpet and piano. Franquin's book, Methode Complète de la Trompette Moderne de Cornet a Pistons et de Bugle, has been an influential teaching aid for many trumpet players, notably Maurice André. Franquin's most notable accomplishment while at the Paris Conservatory was his push for the C Trumpet to replace the low F trumpet as a more versatile orchestral instrument. A more modern form of this instrument was introduced to American symphony orchestras by Georges Mager, and it remains very much in popular use in the United States.
Guy Touvron was a French classical trumpet player and music teacher. He was an accomplished soloist, having played with some of Europe's leading orchestras.

He was the music director of the Orchestre national des Pays de la Loire from 1976 to 1994, and from 1995 to 2003 GMD of the Beethoven Orchester Bonn which plays in both opera and concert. He has worked at major opera houses in Europe and made several recordings, such as Leonore, Beethoven's first version of Fidelio, the piano concertos and symphonies by Camille Saint-Saëns, Honegger's Jeanne d'Arc au bûcher, and Penderecki's St Luke Passion.
