"Intense and joyous..." Charlie Gillett, BBC London
The energetic group of four cellists and percussionist creates a musical journey - from exotic Asian soundscapes to the rhythms and textures of contemporary urban life.
To broaden their expressive range the colourful variety of instruments, including tabla, didjiridoo, tambura, mandolin and harmonica, is also used, creating a joyful and vibrant musical performance event.
“ cellorhythmics bring the cello into 21st century.” Robert Wyatt, Meltdown Festival
"The art of cellos, creatively manipulated to break this instrument free from its classically perceived confines, is the Cellorhythmics..."
(Claudius Hillman, Straight no Chaser)
" The original music written by James Hesford exploring the world of rhythm and improvisation is exciting and innovative, with ideas drawn from many different sources from gospel to bebop. The cellos, both acoustic and electric are played with gutsy virtuosity." ( Harriet Bennett, Musician)
