www.alejandrorutty.com - Composer and bassist Alejandro Rutty is best-known for his distinctive mix of South American styles, lyrical melodies, meticulous rhythmic detail, and textures suggested by modern recording processing techniques. Rutty recently became captivated by the resonance of the modern extended-range electric bass and dedicated his attention to composing bass solos, duos, trios and quartets to perform by himself and/or with other musicians. In 2023 he released two albums: “Less” with various chamber works and the all-bass album "Why Bass?" Long time bassist and arranger for the Lorena Guillén Tango Ensemble, Rutty’s compositions have been played by the Boston Modern Orchestra Project, Indianapolis Chamber Orchestra, National Symphony Orchestra of Argentina, National Symphony Orchestra of Brazil, Porto Alegre Symphony Orchestra, American Modern Ensemble, the Red Clay Saxophone Quartet, and the Cassatt and Carlos Chávez String Quartets among other groups. Recordings have been released by Navona Records, Capstone Records, Albany Records, Arizona University Recordings, and ERM Media. www.alejandrorutty.com Liner notes: https://www.alejandrorutty.com/albums
