Album Description

In a completely unique instrumental combination for a jazz/crossover trio, cellist/singer Rupert Gillett is joined by Valerie Rathmann (double bass/vocals) and Tim Schmiedner (drums). The Rupert Gillett Trio produces a sound that is sometimes delicate, sometimes swinging and funky, with the Cello being the sole melody and chord instrument. The album is a combination of instrumentals and songs, written by Gillett. The debut album from the Rupert Gillett Trio is entitled „köln290824“ and was recorded live in an intimate concert setting at the prestigious jazz venue/recording studio LOFT in Cologne, Germany. Rupert Gillett is a British cellist, bassist, composer and producer. He is an internationally renowned jazz cellist and specialist in many alternative cello techniques. Rupert has collaborated with artists such as jazz legend Jacqui Dankworth MBE, Alison Moyet (Yazoo), Shara Nelson (Massive Attack), Katy Carr, Delain and Modern Nature, and has appeared on BBC radio and television with various ensembles. He has also performed for audiences including Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Jude Law, Orlando Bloom and HRH Prince Philip. He is a lecturer at the Cello Akademie Rutesheim and has also taught at the Royal Academy of Music (London), the New Directions Cello Festival (MA, USA) and various other festivals and courses.
