David Helbock, az osztrák jazz egyik vezető alakja több ízben megfordult már az Opusban. Legújabb duóprojektje számára Julia Hofer basszusgitáros-csellistát kérte fel, aki eddig főként a popzenében szerzett hírnevet. Első lemezüket az ACT Music adta ki Faces of Night címmel, amely azonnal felkerült a The Times 2025 legjobb albumait tartalmazó listájára. Az albumon csendes, álomszerű kompozíciók keverednek groove-os jazzdarabokkal, amelyek mindkét zenész kézjegyét magukon viselik. A kivételes hangzásélményről találékony effektek mellett a zongora ütőhangszerszerű használata és a cselló és basszusgitár közötti dinamikus váltások gondoskodnak. A koncert egyike lesz azon ritka alkalmaknak, amikor a duóhoz az album mindhárom vendégzenésze: Harcsa Veronika jazzénekes, Lorenz Raab trombitás és a speciális perzsa gitáron játszó Mahan Mirarab is élőben csatlakozik.
Közreműködik:
David Helbock - zongora
Julia Hofer - basszusgitár, cselló
Vendégek:
Harcsa Veronika - ének
Lorenz Raab - trombita
Mahan Mirarab - gitár, fretless gitár, oud
A koncert a Groupama támogatásával valósul meg.
Jegyek 4800 forintos áron kaphatók a helyszínen, a bmc.jegy.hu oldalon, valamint az InterTicket országos Jegypont hálózatában.

David Helbock, a leading figure in Austrian jazz, delights audiences worldwide with his projects at festivals on all continents. His virtuosity and creativity have earned him numerous awards, including several prizes at the world's largest Jazz Piano Solo Competition in Montreux (CH), as well as the “Outstanding Artist Award” from the Austrian federal government.
In his latest project, Helbock has been able to win the versatile electric bassist and cellist Julia Hofer from Vienna as his duo partner. Hofer has so far mainly made a name for herself in the pop world, whether through tours with the No Angels or appearances in German TV shows like those hosted by Stefan Raab. In addition to her impressive online presence on YouTube, she is now dedicating herself more intensively to jazz together with David Helbock. In autumn 2025, the duo released a new album on the internationally renowned label ACT Music. Faces of Night was immediately selected by The Times (UK) as one of the best jazz albums of 2025.
The album promises a fascinating mix of quiet, dreamy original compositions and groovy jazz pieces that bear the unmistakable style of Helbock and Hofer, and it is also complemented by exciting guest musicians. With inventive effects, rhythmic percussion elements in the grand piano, and the dynamic switch between cello and electric bass, this evening promises an extraordinary sound experience and a musical journey full of emotions and innovations.
This concert is a very rare opportunity to experience the duo live with all three guests from the album. Singer Veronika Harcsa is a steady guest at BMC. Lorenz Raab is the Solotrumpeter at Volksoper Vienna but also one of Austria’s best jazz trumpet players, while Mahan Mirarab brings a lot of new interesting colors to the duo with his special double neck Persian guitar.
Featuring:
David Helbock - piano
