David Helbock und Julia Hofer Duo (AUT)

David Helbock is a leading figure in Austrian jazz who thrills audiences around the world with his projects at festivals on all five continents. His virtuosity and creativity have won him numerous awards, including several prizes at the world's largest Jazz Piano Solo Competition in Montreux (CH) and the "Outstanding Artist Award" from the Austrian Federal Government. For his latest project Helbock has joined forces with the versatile electric bassist and cellist Julia Hofer from Vienna as his duo partner. Hofer has previously attracted attention primarily in the pop world, whether through tours with No Angels or appearances on German TV such as Stefan Raab's show. Julia is now concentrating more exclusively on jazz with David Helbock, alongside her impressive online presence on YouTube, where her videos for the Thomann company inspire millions of bass fans.
