Rudi Mahall (born December 23,[1] 1966 in Nuremberg) is a German bass clarinettist in the field of contemporary jazz. He is considered "one of the most internationally sought-after jazz musicians from Germany."[2
Mahall began playing the clarinet at the age of fourteen. While studying classical clarinet, he explored contemporary music and improvisation and switched to bass clarinet because of Eric Dolphy. He became a professional musician in 1990.
The bands in which he was or still is involved include Der Rote Bereich (initially with Frank Möbus, Marty Cook, Jim Black and Henning Sieverts) and Pro Susi, and after moving to Berlin in 1993, Die Enttäuschung (with Axel Dörner, Jan Roder, among others)[3] as well as Fossile3 (with Sebastian Gramss) and Fusk (with Kasper Tom Christiansen, Philipp Gropper, Andreas Lang), among others.
