CJC 15th Birthday Celebrations in October:
Paris-resident Aussie pianist Chris Cody reunites with locals Roger Manins, Ollie Holland and Ron Samsom, to play material from his new album: The Outsider.
Chris Cody has thrilled audiences at venues and festivals around the world from New York to Zanzibar, working with jazz greats Roy Hargrove, Herb Geller, Rhoda Scott, Lisa Simone, Brice Wassy, and Miles Davis alumni Rick Margitza along the way.
The Outsider ranges from from the blues to exuberant gospel and jazz, film noir ballads to wild swing, infused with infectious African and Middle Eastern motifs and grooves. Cody was inspired by his many years in France working with African and Arab musicians, the writings of Albert Camus, and the pandemic experience that raised questions of identity and purpose.
Don't miss this one-off NZ concert!
“Free flowing, inspired, high revving, hugely evocative, elegantly layered, wonderfully lithe and sinewy, elegiac musing… compositional sophistication…his finest album.”
— John Shand - Sydney Morning Herald
