Jörg Brinkmann
The German cellist has made a name for himself through his cross-genre work in jazz. Known for his extraordinary virtuosity and sound design, he combines classical cello techniques with improvisational jazz. He has already worked with many well-known musicians such as Anouar Brahem, Michael Wollny and Ernie Watts and is active in numerous projects both as a soloist and in ensembles. Brinkmann's playing is characterised by innovative sound experiments, whereby he often amplifies the cello electronically and leads it into unconventional worlds of sound. With his musical diversity, he is regarded as one of the most outstanding jazz cellists in Europe.
