Undergrand Mahurangi
Imagine a piano in a park, atop a volcano, on a beach at sunset, in a forest in the late afternoon, on a busy city street with a musician tinkling the ivories…
Creating a surreal atmosphere in tune with leaves, water, the breeze, city traffic and people, Undergrand – a portable baby grand piano – pops up all over Tāmaki Makaurau, with music that moves the spirit and gives us reason to pause and reflect.
With a curated selection of talented rangatahi and professional pianists playing all styles and genres, along with an opportunity for public to share their talents, this pop up piano presents a range of recitals and unforgettable experiences that will undoubtedly make your day better, wherever you may be.
Pianist at Brick Bay will be Kevin Field.
Pianist and composer Kevin Field has collaborated with some of the top international names in jazz including Grammy nominated guitarists Mike Moreno and Nir Felder who feature on his latest album Soundtology, released worldwide by European label Timezone.
Kevin is also musical director for the Alchemy project – a 12 member musical collective whose debut album reached number 11 on the NZ album charts.
Already a well-known name to jazz audiences, Kevin has performed concerts in Australia, the UK and USA including at prestigious venues Ronnie Scott’s and The Blue Note.
