"… the musicianship on the group’s first album Conspiracy is excellent and the leader/composer reveals a clear mastery of the form, drafting disparate arrangements of harmonic complexity, fleet counterpoint and technical rigor. Within the big band world this debut is auspicious.“

News
I am so happy to announce that the Tobias Hoffmann Jazz Orchestra released a new CD this year. After releasing the first CD “Conspiracy” in 2022, I am excited to announce that my ensemble’s new album “Innuendo” was released on the German label MONS Records (MR874873) on September 20, 2024.
In the past years, I have written a lot of music for big bands and jazz orchestras. In 2021, I took the venture of forming my own ensemble with musicians from Graz, Vienna and Germany and recording my first CD. Since then, working with this ensemble has become my artistic focus and I feel honored to be able to do so.
Featuring a stellar line-up of musicians, the Tobias Hoffmann Jazz Orchestra has developed into an ensemble of note with each section blending together in such a way that only more established bands sound. In 2022, the Tobias Hoffmann Jazz Orchestra released the first album "Conspiracy" and in 2024 the second album "Innuendo" followed. Both albums were released on the prestigious German label MONS Records and have been both critically acclaimed..
You find both recordings on any streaming platform or can purchase a copy of the CDs by sending me an e-mail. If you are interested in purchasing any composition or arrangement or hire me as a composer and arranger for your project, don't hesitate to contact me. I am looking forward to hearing from you.
