Tine Thing Helseth is a distinguished Norwegian trumpet soloist known for her remarkable technique, warm tone, and ability to engage audiences across a broad spectrum of genres. Born in Oslo in 1987, Helseth began playing the trumpet at the age of seven and has since established herself as one of the foremost trumpet players of her generation. She launched into international recognition in 2007 when she was awarded first prize in the Eurovision Young Musicians competition, which set the stage for a flourishing career.

Throughout her career, Helseth has shown a deep commitment to expanding the trumpet repertoire, working closely with contemporary composers and arranging pieces for her instrument herself. Her discography reflects this diversity, ranging from the baroque elegance of "Trumpet Tune in C Major, ZT 678" to the contemporary flair showcased in her performance of "Seraph," a trumpet concerto written for her by James MacMillan. She is also known for her captivating collaborations, such as her poignant rendition of Satie's "Je te veux," arranged for trumpet and ensemble. In her albums like "Never Going Back," Helseth continues to explore and blend different musical styles, confirming her status as a trailblazer in the classical music world.
