About Me |
|
| Jesse van Ruller is known to be one of the best contemporary jazz guitarists on the scene today. His unique sound, virtuoso technique and beautiful compositions are praised around the globe. In 1995 he won the prestigious Thelonious Monk Award in Washington. The jury, consisting of Pat Metheny, John Scofield, Jim Hall, Pat Martino and Mark Whitfield, was of the opinion that Jesse is one of the most promising talents of his time. In the same year he graduated from the Hilversum Conservatory, where he studied with Wim Overgaauw. Since then he has performed with numerous renowned musicians and ensembles such as Pat Metheny, George Duke, Joe Lovano, Peter Erskine, Jim Hall, Philip Catherine, Toots Thielemans, the Roy Hargrove Quintet, Seamus Blake, Metropole Orchestra, Asko Ensemble, WDR Big Band, Birmingham Symphony Orchestra and the Berliner Philharmoniker. He was nominated for the Dutch Bird and Edison Awards several times and to date has released nine albums as a leader. In Pursuit is the latest release of Jesse van Ruller, a duo-album with Bert van den Brink on piano (for sale at www.ajarecords.nl). |
