Helen Svoboda

Helen Svoboda is a double bassist, vocalist, composer, and nature-enthusiast. ‘With a deep awareness of extra-musical concepts that shape inventive improvisation, and great art.. ‘ (Steve Newcomb, AUS), she draws influence mainly from vegetables, flowers and the genres of minimalist neo-classical music to folk and experimental jazz. With a steadfast ‘desire and ability to create and perform original music’ (Rafael Karlen, AUS), Svoboda has developed a distinctive sound across many different musical avenues. Pursuing a passion for unusual combinations of instrumentation, she is defined not by genre, but by her addiction to music and her love of exciting creative environments (both plant and non-plant related). With Finnish/Australian heritage, Svoboda has spent the past two years in the Netherlands, specializing in soloistic double bass composition with inclusion of voice - particularly focused on the overtone series
