Description
British pianist Jason Rebello is regarded as one of the most talented, inventive and intuitive pianists to emerge in the UK since he burst onto the scene in the early 90's with a string of critically acclaimed albums for the BMG label.
In this solo format the intensely lyrical quality always evident in Jason's music comes to the fore and, allied to his formidable technique and maturity as an artist and musician, ensures that on Held, he is creating some of the most compelling and beautiful music of his career.
Jason had primarily worked with electronic keyboards in his own groups (as well as with Sting and Jeff Beck); but now he has decided it's time to say something on the instrument he loves. In early 2016 Jason will release his debut solo piano album, featuring mostly original compositions inspired by the people and places that have been important in his career.
As Jason explains: 'throughout my career I've had the opportunity to play in wide-ranging and diverse scenarios, but never had an opportunity to immerse myself fully in the piano. I've reached a point now where I feel there is something to say with just a piano and I'm relishing this opportunity to consolidate all my musical experiences on this record'.
