26th Jazz and Blues Days Lichterfelde: Faces of Night

David Helbock, a leading figure in Austrian jazz, captivates audiences worldwide with his projects.


His virtuosity and creativity have earned him numerous awards, including several prizes at the world's largest jazz piano solo competition in Montreux, Switzerland, as well as the Austrian Federal Government's "Outstanding Artist Award."

In his latest project, Helbock has teamed up with the versatile electric bassist and cellist Julia Hofer. Hofer has primarily made a name for herself in the pop world, through tours with the No Angels and appearances on German television shows.

In the fall of 2025, the duo released a new album, which was immediately selected by The Times (UK) as one of the best jazz albums of 2025.

The album promises a captivating blend of tranquil, dreamy original compositions and groovy jazz pieces, all bearing the unmistakable style of Helbock and Hofer, and is further enhanced by exciting guest musicians. With imaginative effects, rhythmic percussion elements in the piano and the dynamic alternation between cello and electric bass, this evening promises an extraordinary sound experience and a musical journey full of emotions and innovations.
