David Helbock's «Random Control», teaser concert for cultural society patrons

Keyboard days: Music up close.

MUSIC | VARIOUS STYLES

The 32-year-old Austrian jazz pianist David Helbock belongs to the generation of young jazz musicians who break the boundaries of their profession, who change the musical understanding of old and new, of composition and improvisation, of style and personality and go their own way.
More than a dozen instruments in the concert on stage, but only three musicians: David Helbock is largely limited to those with keys, Johannes Bär is responsible for the brass, but also for the digeridoo and alphorn, while Andreas Broger plays the woodwind instruments up to the percussion. David Helbock sometimes makes use of his favorite jazz pianists and arranges their most famous piece. Exciting, groovy new versions of Watermelon Man (Herbie Hancock) or Bolivia (Cedar Walton) can be heard, but also quiet pieces like My Song (Keith Jarrett) and many more. Over the years, a completely independent band sound has developed and no matter what David Helbock chooses as the source material, the result is always a completely independent work of art full of contrasts. The three develop something magical and thus reinforce Helbock's credo: "Music begins where words end – a roller coaster ride of emotions, music for the ear and exciting things for the eye.
