David Helbock's Random/Control live in Lindau (Bodensee)

Experience David Helbock's Random/Control live on November 28th

David Helbock’s Random/Control will perform at Stadttheater Lindau on November 28, 2026. The ensemble, led by Austrian pianist David Helbock, is known for its unique approach to jazz improvisation and composition. Their music blends elements of modern jazz, classical music, and electronic soundscapes, often incorporating prepared piano and loop stations to create complex textures and spontaneous arrangements. A defining characteristic is the interplay between meticulously composed structures and freely improvised sections, giving the impression of controlled chaos – hence the name “Random/Control.” Helbock himself is recognized for his virtuosic piano playing and innovative use of technology within a jazz context.
