Philipp Eden is a musician, sound artist, and curator based in Basel, Switzerland. As a pianist and electronic musician, he works primarily in the field of improvised music, exploring the dynamic interplay between instrument, environment, and listening as a foundation for musical creation. His practice is shaped by a deep engagement with philosophical and political ideas, and his strong interest in collaborative processes.
In addition to his work as a performer, Philipp has collaborated in various interdisciplinary projects and his own sound art projects, incorporating field recordings and electronic instruments to investigate the broader possibilities of sonic expression.
He has performed across Europe at festivals and venues such as zoom in Festival (Bern), We Jazz Festival (Helsinki), Sonoscopia (Lisbon), Echoraum (Vienna), and Copenhagen Jazz Festival.
Philipp has collaborated with a wide range of artists, including Andria Nicodemou, Ben Bennett, Christine Abdelnour, Lara Alarcón, Audrey Chen, Quentin Conrate, Bertrand Denzler, Vincent Glanzmann, Marie Jeger, Beat Keller, Frantz Loriot, Martin Perret, Xaver Rüegg, Marina Tantanozi, Alinna Thikonova, Tizia Zimmermann, and Peter Conradin Zumthor.
Since 2016, he has been part of the Gamut Kollektiv in Zürich, which curates festivals, a concert series, and the label edition gamut. In 2024, he also started co-curating the murmur concert series in Basel.
