Helga moves at the vibrant intersection of art, research, and inner transformation. Trained in historical keyboard instruments across Europe’s cultural cities – from Budapest and Vienna to Lyon, Siena, Basel, and Zurich – she unites artistic mastery with a sensitivity for the unspoken spaces between the notes.

 

Her path spans from award-winning performer – Gianni Bergamo Prize, Lugano – to cultural researcher and pioneer of healing artistic practice. Through performances with ensembles such as the Basel Chamber Orchestra, Camerata Zürich, and CHAARTS, she has brought the universal language of music to audiences across Europe and South America.

 

In her projects and publications – including the biography of violinist Stefi Geyer (Peter Lang, 2020), the albums Bartók & Baroque (2016) and Nannerl Mozart (2018), and the interdisciplinary work APPASSIONATA (2022) – she explores the dialogue between sound, memory, and the resonance of the soul.

 

After years in cultural management, including as Head of Projects at the Lucerne Theatre and co-founder of the Basel-based association Les Soirées Amusantes, Helga now serves on the Board of Trustees of the Rudolf von Tobel Study Foundation, supporting young musicians and fostering international exchange projects in collaboration with the Pau Casals Foundation and the University of Madrid.

 

Her work is guided by the belief that culture creates spaces for dialogue, openness, and healing. Since 2025, she has been deepening this path through studies in art therapy (painting and sculpture), trusting that the creative act is one of the most profound forms of human renewal.
