The many artistic lives of musician David Long

Collaboration with artists across many disciplines and styles has long marked out the work of Pōneke Wellington musician David Long.  David Long is perhaps still best known as a key musical partner of Don McGlashan in ‘90s band The Mutton Birds, and prior to that as part of experimental outfit Six Volts, who backed up the Front Lawn on their first recordings.  But Long has also created the music for countless films including the Lord of the Rings trilogy, BBC series The Luminaries and recent Loren Taylor feature The Moon is Upside Down. Then there’s his long track record composing for contemporary dance, including writing many pieces for pre-eminent choreographer, the late Douglas Wright.
