Combining guitar virtuoso Simon Thacker’s immaculately controlled synthesis of classical, experimental and flamenco guitar techniques with the vocal artistry of Daisy Chute and a top jazz trio, Camerata Ritmata find expression in genre defying programmes of huge variety, from whispered ballads to driving Afro-sambas. Deftly combining the structure and imaginative flair for sound of classical music with the freewheeling joy and creativity of jazz and passion of Latin America and Spain (or anywhere that takes their collective fancy!) the quintet pool their formidable talents into something truly rich and rare, exciting and intoxicating.
Music by such varied composers as Billie Holiday, Antonio Carlos Jobim, Led Zeppelin, Chick Corea, Burt Bacharach, Villa-Lobos, Silvio Rodriguez (made famous by Omara Portuondo of Buena Vista Social Club fame), Joan Baez/Led Zeppelin and Roberto Baden Powell is given the distinctive Camerata Ritmata sound, utilising several combinations of the performers.
