Classically trained from childhood, cellist Danielle DeGruttola went on to graduate from the Berkeley School of Music and Mills College where she focused on Jazz cello, improvisation, music composition and sound engineering.

Send Danielle the music or video in which you’d like to add cello music.  She will create professionally recorded original and real (not synthesized) cello parts.  The original improvised or composed cello tracks can back your existing film, video, internet broadcast, or be mixed with preexisting tracks of music.

Danielle’s playing style is equally at home in all genres of music including: Jazz, Country, Bluegrass, Blues, Rock, Pop, and Classical.

Options for Ordering Tracks Online

Does your film or video need original music?

Send Danielle your video and she will provide you an economical solution, one where you will own the copyright outright, or share residuals.  Danielle will create the music track with either solo or multitrack cello, with Zeta electric cello.  The result will be all-inclusive, include all post-production mixing and processing for one fee.

Does your band, or studio recording need a solo cello part or multiple cello parts?

Danielle can improvise new parts for any style of music, with or without a lead sheet. She can perform written scores, or provide a written score.  She can provide the client with several tracks to choose from to fit the need.

For simple projects she will supply cello parts as needed in Mono and Stereo.  For more complex projects she can supply multitrack options, including mixed layered cello, or multiple individual tracks that can be mixed in Pro Tool projects, etc. Danielle can also mix her cello parts directly to your stereo recording and send you back a stereo recording mix with effects added.

Danielle has access to a variety of top quality microphones (Neumann, Schoeps, AKG, etc.).  She can create both close contact recordings (mic up close) and small room recordings (mics a few feet away).

Traditional Recording Sessions

Danielle can work with your recording engineer and meet with you at a traditional recording studio.  She can either improvise the parts on the spot, or if you send her the music ahead of time, she can craft a variety of possible cello parts and then record them with you at the recording studio.
