Since his Mercury Award-nominated solo work "Good Days at Schloss Elmau" at the latest, pianist Gwilym Simcock has belonged to the spearhead of jazz in Great Britain. With "Instrumation", the Valais-born pianist presents himself not only as a piano virtuoso, but also as a creative creator of elegant jazz orchestra compositions. The leading British daily newspaper The Guardian praised the recording, which is divided into two suites, in the highest terms and awarded it 4 stars. The Financial Times also enthusiastically celebrated the "masterful expansion of his flourishing and rhythmic pianostyle". On "Instrumation" Simcock plays out his vein for romantic-classical art music.

Chick Corea calls him an "original, a creative
genius," and Jamie Cullum, a star of the British music scene, declares him
"our best young pianist":
Born in 1981 and residing in London, Welsh pianist Gwilym
Simcock undoubtedly ranks among the forefront of European jazz. Simcock made
his breakthrough in 2011 with his solo piano recording, "Good Days at
Schloss Elmau."
His ACT debut was nominated for the prestigious Mercury
Prize, the UK's most important cross-genre music award, making Simcock one of
the 12 best albums in the UK, alongside world-renowned artists like Adele.
