Daniel Holland
Q:
Can art save us?
A:
Yes, absolutely! It's a way to creatively express and experience the times we're living in, life's rich tapestry – all our moments of joy, sadness, hope, fear, gratitude, despair, compassion, heartbreak, love...
Short Bio /
Pianist/composer/arranger, Daniel Holland grew up in a musical family, planting the seed for his lifelong love and appreciation of music.
Daniel first sat at the piano in childhood, underwent initial training in classical music, and then carved out a focus in jazz at the Sydney Conservatorium of Music.
He feels fortunate to be part of an exciting industry that's constantly evolving, and the opportunities that come from this.
Having travelled extensively throughout the world, he's met and worked with some of the world's finest artists and musicians, as bandleader, arranger and accompanist, in a wide range of projects and musical genres. Daniel continues to explore music at all its edges, and working with a diverse range of fellow artists.
