Our Take

To say that Camille Bertault and David Helbock's collaborative album "Playground" is a breath of fresh air would be an understatement. This whimsical and audacious project is a delightful romp through the musical landscape, with Bertault's enchanting vocals and Helbock's innovative piano skills taking centre stage.

From the very first track, "Swan Lake," it is clear that this duo is not afraid to push the boundaries of traditional jazz music. Bertault's vocal acrobatics effortlessly glide over Helbock's haunting piano melodies, creating a mesmerising soundscape that is both fun and thought-provoking.

Tracks like "Rainbow Connection" and "Smile" showcase Bertault's versatility as a singer, effortlessly switching between playful and heartfelt moments with ease. Helbock's piano arrangements provide the perfect backdrop for Bertault's vocals, adding an extra layer of depth to each track.

But the real standout moment of the album comes in the form of the track "Uninvited." This hauntingly beautiful rendition of the Alanis Morissette classic is a masterclass in musical storytelling, with Bertault and Helbock delivering an emotional performance that is sure to give you goosebumps.

Overall, "Playground" is a joyous and innovative album that will appeal to jazz aficionados and casual listeners alike. Bertault and Helbock have truly outdone themselves with this project, and I can't wait to see where their musical journey takes them next. Trust me, you won't want to miss out on this gem of an album.
