Charlotte Lang is a young, rising Swiss-Dutch alto and baritone saxophonist, multi-instrumentalist, composer and improviser, born in Basel.

Her debut album “The Journey”, which was released on October 25, 2024 by Unit Records in the newly launched Alpha Edition, presents the young jazz musician with original compositions that move stylistically within modern jazz.

​

She completed her bachelor's degree in jazz and her master's degree in jazz pedagogy at the Hochschule für Musik Basel with Domenic Landolf, Dani Blanc and Günter Wehinger, among others.

In July 2023, she completed her Master in Performance at the renowned Berklee College of Music in Boston under the artistic direction of Danilo Pérez and studied with music greats such as John Patitucci, George Garzone, Godwin Louis and Frank Tiberi.
