Hosted by Brian Hayes, The Music Mind Podcast series aims to explore the creative lives of some of the very best musicians from all over the world.
In Episode 3 the conversation is with Sydney Australia based saxophone, flute and Roland Aerophone (EWI) player Andrew Oh. Originally from Singapore, Andrew is one of Australia's finest musicians, a world-class exponent on his instruments who has played, recorded, taught and toured extensively across Australia and around the world including in Singapore, Hong Kong and Italy.
In this conversation we delve into Andrew's thoughts on developing a personalised sound on a musical instrument, finding the best equipment for the job, on performing vs playing, on composing and arranging, on music production, improvisation and music education. The conversation is a great behind the scenes look at a highly successful, international professional career in music.
The podcast ends with a musical collaboration between the host Brian Hayes on slide dobro, our guest from Episode One Mike Hayes on nylon string guitar and Andrew Oh on concert flute and the Roland Aerophone (creating harmonica and string sounds) playing an instrumental version of the beautiful 'Fields of Gold' composed by Sting.
