Steve Barry
In The Waves Album Launch
Barry launches his new quartet album In The Waves, recorded in Sydney last year and featuring drummer Eric Harland (USA) and saxophonist Will Vinson (UK/USA).
Born out of a pandemic-inspired reconnection with ocean swimming, the music holds physical and philosophical qualities of water as a common thread and showcases Barry’s trademark “…harmonic adventurousness, melodic resourcefulness, switchback rhythmic ideas and non-bombastic sense of drama” (Sydney Morning Herald).
Dr Steve Barry is a multi-award winning pianist, composer, improviser, and lecturer at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music. Born & raised in Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland and now living and creating on Gadigal land in Sydney, Barry works across the music industry as a performer, accompanist, educator and consultant. He is the recipient of the 2021 APRA Professional Development Award for Jazz, and works regularly across Australia, New Zealand, Japan and more recently Vietnam.
For this special night at CJC Steve is joined by old friends Cam McArthur and Ron Samsom.
“…one of Australia’s most inventive and accomplished composer / improvisers.”
