Led by tenor and soprano saxophonist Simon Spiess, Helio traces a dreamlike journey through atmospheres, rhythms and shifting energies. Two generations of players—Simon Spiess, Malcolm Braff (piano), Bänz Oester (double bass) and Samuel Dühsler (drums)—blend original compositions with jazz-rooted improvisation, interweaving rhythmic motifs and sensitive harmonies. The ensemble’s sound balances innovation and timelessness, crafting intimate textures and expansive surges that invite focused listening and sustained emotional resonance.
