HELIX

For over two years, Maurice Graf accompanied renowned Cologne-based composer and bassist Sebastian Gramss—active on an international scale—as he explored the musical HELIX phenomenon. In the HELIX project, more than 80 musicians collaborated with Gramss to rehearse, investigate, and develop innovative rhythmic spirals and new temporal structures within both improvised and composed music. These experiments took place in a wide range of ensembles—from trios to orchestral settings—forming the core of a new musical language.
