Bio:
Nick Cornish is much in demand as a classical oboist and a jazz musician. He has been principal oboe for the Dunedin Symphony Orchestra since 2004 and is often called up to play with NZSO and Orchestra Wellington. As a jazz saxophone player, Nick has been a member of and has led several groups over the past 20 years. He was a member of the group Subject2change, a collaboration with Trevor Coleman, Rob Burns and Paul McLelland-Kissel which made numerous recordings in a range of jazz and fusion styles in the early 2000s. He has been a regular instrumentalist at the Dunedin Jazz Club, performing in the Ralph Miller Nonet and the Bill Martin Septet.
Nick and Trevor Coleman played together as a duo for a number of years in Dunedin appearing in many performances in Marama Hall and other venues. They collaborated with Heleen du Plessis, cello, to record Trevor Coleman’s polycyclic music on 3 albums which was the culmination of his DMa thesis. Nick led the sax section of the Dunedin City Jazz Orchestra for 10 years, and is successor to Calder Prescott in directing the band. Calder established the band in about 1989 and it has enjoyed entertaining Dunedin audiences ever since.
