Gast Waltzing won a special award regrouping all categories, as his activities are so diverse that it’s hard to put him in a certain style of music. Be it his career as a Conductor, Jazz Trumpeter or Composer of Film Music. His latest collaboration with Angélique Kidjo has been nominated for the Grammy Awards held in February 2016.
