Born and raised in Germany, trained in New York City and now based in Canada, jazz pianist and composer, Florian Hoefner, draws from a myriad of influences that cumulate in his unique brand of modern jazz. Praised as a “composer-bandleader of insightful resolve” by the New York Times and a “harmonically daring pianist […] reaching toward new sonic territory” by Downbeat, Florian Hoefner has made his mark as an inventive creator and performer of exciting contemporary Jazz. 

Since 2018 Florian is working with a new Canadian trio with Andrew Downing on bass and Nick Fraser on drums.  The group is performing a completely new repertoire of his originals and arrangements of folk songs from different parts of the world.
