Pablo Held (born 27 December 1986) is a German jazz pianist and composer.

[2] His father played the piano and introduced him to the music of Federico Mompou.

[3] Held was also influenced and taught by pianist John Taylor.

[4][5] Held's album Recondita Armonia was reviewed by Down Beat: "Held puts an individual spin on the typical ballad album by drawing on all classical themes.

"[3] Pianist Kit Downes observed that Held "has developed a way of performing with his trio where all 3 of them know each others parts for every tune – so anyone can cue any part of any tune by just playing a small part of it (even if it's in the middle of another tune) – so that they then seamlessly link in other material to the mix".
