Rebecca Carrington
was born into a family of classical musicians. Her grandmother was an exceptional cellist, who was one of very few female cellists to study with the internationally celebrated cellist, Emmanuel Feuermann. Rebecca is also the daughter of Simon Carrington, a British conductor and founder of the vocal ensemble the King’s Singers.
Rebecca herself is a classically trained cellist & singer, who after completing her Masters in Cello performance played with such orchestras as the London Symphony, London Philharmonic, Royal Philharmonic, the BBC Symphony and the Mahler Chamber Orchestra.
As a freelance cellist she also recorded on such film sound tracks as “Lord of the Rings”, “Harry Potter”, “Gangs of New York” and “Hannibal.” She also performed at the “BRITS 2006” with Kanye West and has performed and recorded with various Pop Artists such as Jill Scott, David Byrne, Paul Mcartney and Aretha Franklin.
She created her own music and comedy show, “Me and My Cello” and after selling out at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in 2004 & 2005, Rebecca became a full time music comedian, taking her one woman show all over the world, before she developed the Duo „Carrington-Brown“ with her husband, Colin Brown.
Originally from England, but now based in Berlin, Rebecca is now recording cello and vocals for various film and music projects at her home studio.
