Acoustic music that knows about jazz, but about Indian raga, folk music, and maybe chamber music too. Jazz World Music?
Hayden Chisholm, originally from Taranaki, has made his home in Europe for 30 years. Since moving to Germany in 1993 to study at the Cologne College of Music, he has performed in Europe, Asia, the Americas, Africa and of course—when the chance arises—around Aotearoa. That opportunity has arisen again this summer when he will perform around New Zealand with his local group Unwind. Joined by sympathetic New Zealand musicians Paul Dyne (bassist with Malcolm McNeill, Rodger Fox, Sustenance) and pianist/composer Norman Meehan, Hayden will be performing original music that might know about jazz, but also dances with Indian raga, chamber music, and folk traditions.
