Gregor Huebner News

Dear Friends,

A lot of things happened in the last almost 2 years and here are some samples and products of my creative work during this, for us artists, a difficult time:

Pelikula is a project together with the great film composer Gerd Baumann. It took us several years to create this wonderful recording and I am very proud about the final outcome.

During the cultural break I took part as a violinist in the movie Rotzbub which will be in theaters this winter and as a composer and musician in and for the documentary Der Fall El Masri which is still available on arte TV.

I was privileged to get some great commissions in the last 2 years which kept me writing, focused and sane.

In Memoriam

Two dear friends passed away during Covid, and I want to remember their musical genius; George Mraz, Jazz Bassist and Tango master Raúl Jaurena.

It was a great honor to work with them. They will be greatly missed, but their music endures.

George Mraz, Consummate Jazz Bassist, Dies at 77
For half a century, he was in constant demand, backing big names like Oscar Peterson as well as countless up-and-coming performers.

These photos were taken at one of our last concerts with Beirach Huebner Mraz in 2014.
