Info for Rubicon
Das erste Leader-Album des von vielen wichtigen Einspielungen und durch seine langjährige Zusammenarbeit mit Tord Gustavsen bekannten Bassisten auf ECM. Das Repertoire des Albums umfasst ausschließlich Originalmaterial von Eilertsen und Mitgliedern des international zusammengesetzten Ensembles. Die Besetzung mit zwei Bläsern, zwei unterschiedlichen Tasteninstrumenten und Gitarre führt zu besonders eigenständigen und an unterschiedlichen Stimmungen und Farben reichen Arrangements.
From Eilertsen’s solo bass introduction to the final few seconds of Harmen Fraanje’s solo piano the composition moved through passages of great power, solid 4/4 grooves, dynamic rhythms and reflective, meditative interplay. The piece lasted for around 75 minutes but held the attention to such an extent that time seemed to pass much more quickly. (AllAboutJazz)

Mats Eilertsen
(b. 1975, Trondheim, Norway) is one of the finest and most distinct bass players on the Norwegian jazz scene of today. His skills and musical maturity make him the perfect trio member. He has a special warm and lyrical way of treating the bass, being steady and experimental at the same time, bringing it all together and yet showing openness, willingness, and constantly searching for new sounds.
Mats is a highly attractive musician and can also be heard as a member of the three ECM-asociated groups Tord Gustavsen Ensemble, the Source, Wolfert Brederode Quartet.
He has participated on numerous recordings and has also had the opportunity to perform with international stars such as Pat Metheney, Joshua Redman, Lee Konitz, Bobo Stenson, Kenny Wheeler, Tomasz Stanko, Arve Henriksen, Solveig Slettahjell, Sonny Simmons.
