Rachel's debut, "raw" sounding solo cello album, was produced by Lior Suliman & Tal Weiss. It was recorded using 16 vintage microphones capturing every possible cello and room sound. Everything was later mixed to preserve the true impact and full range of sounds made by a solo cello playing in a room. In the album, she plays music by Ligeti, Kodaly, Britten, Bach, Reijseger and Uri Brener.
