Christine Fawson is an unforgettable talent who mesmerizes audiences around the world with her sultry vocals and virtuosic trumpet playing. Originally from Northern California, Christine has forged a path through jazz and commercial entertainment, and has sculpted the minds of young artists for over 20 years. Endorsed by the prestigious Bach corporation, Christine was an innovative presence for 14 years on the Brass faculty at Berklee College of Music, lending her talents to the Ear Training/Harmony, Vocal, Performance Studies and Ensemble Departments, as well as evaluating student applicants through the Audition and Interview process. Berklee showcased her talents in countless performances, recordings, promotional materials, and jazz clinics in several foreign partner schools. Downbeat Magazine noted Christine as “A distinctive performer with compelling dynamism,” and Jack Bowers of All About Jazz, touts her presence as “a performer who must be seen, as well as heard to be suitably appreciated.” Her tenure in the popular vocal jazz ensemble, Syncopation, included a featured performance in the 2009 Boston Pops July 4th Celebration, among other distinguished festivals around the United States and Japan. Syncopation produced three recordings during this time, including A New Dance, Of Blue, and Wonderful You, and regularly performed throughout the Boston area with The Capitol Center Jazz Orchestra and Phil Wilson’s acclaimed Rainbow Band. Christine has recorded four albums as a leader. Her first, entitled Happy Talk, is a collaboration with legendary trombonist and Grammy Award nominated arranger Phil Wilson. She stretched her creativity on her second album, My Side, (2013) to feature her original pop and jazz compositions. A return to her more traditional jazz roots is displayed in the 2016 album entitled Here Now. Her latest release, Christine Fawson Sings Jazz (2018) features her contemporary adaptations of selections from the Great American Songbook.
