Overview
Hi, My name is RutiCelli and my music tells the story of my life. A story of a classically trained cellist living most of her life in a foreign country (the US) where I unexpectedly gone very deeply inwards (into a spiritual journey) starting over 20 years ago. I discovered my nature beyond the mind & identity through Meditation, Human Design & Music Production. This is where I tap into my natural ability to channel & transmit on the spot to express my inner insights.
As a hired musician I am naturally designed to fit into any style, atmosphere, social event needs I love to offer improvisation in different genres but I also love to offer my love for playing J.S Bach Cello solo suites

June 11, 2023Pure magic
Ruti helped us create an absolutely beautiful wedding day. I cannot express enough my gratitude for her participation in our event. We had a very small ceremony at a beautiful beach house in Dillon Beach, CA. She was perfect for the occasion.

April 1, 2014Another outstanding performance
After being impressed with Ruti's performance in January, I decided to hire her again to work with me for a very special proposal of marriage on Hollywood Beach. This client had an extremely complicated routine planned, with unfamiliar music (A Thousand Years and Marry You) and Ruti executed the cello part flawlessly, as well as performed other classical music with me while we were waiting for the couple to arrive on the beach. The girl said yes, and if the couple hires my company to provide wedding music for their wedding, I will be calling Ruti to play it!
Hired as: Cellist
