about

Jörg Brinkmann (GERMANY) -Violoncello

THIS EXCITING AVANTGARDE CELLIST EXPANDS THE BOUNDARIES OF THE VIOLONCELLO IN HIS VERY OWN WAY TO GREAT, ASTOUNDING EFFECT.
HE FOUND AN UNMISTAKABLY SPECIFIC STYLE WITH HIS UNIQUE APPROACH USING DIFFERENT PLAYING-TECHNIQUES UNUSUAL AND UNHEARD OF FOR HIS INSTRUMENT.

-------
„ALL ABOUT JAZZ“ SAYS:

„HE CREATES A MULTIFACETED STYLISTIC APPROACH, COMFORTABLY ASSUMING THE ROLE OF BASSIST WITH THE KIND OF GROOVE THAT WOULD BE UNEXPECTED FROM A CLASSICALLY TRAINED CELLIST, WERE IT NOT FOR HIS EXTENSIVE, GENRE-RICH RESUMÉ.
REPRESENTS THE VIEWPOINT THAT JAZZ TRADITION IS BUT ONE ASPECT OF CONTEMPORARY IMPROVISED MUSIC.“
