Don Burrows
Biography
1973 was a watershed year for Burrows in which he received the first gold record won by an Australian jazz musician for his record Just the Beginning; instigated the first jazz studies program in the southern hemisphere at the New South Wales Conservatorium of Music and was awarded Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE). In 1979, he was appointed as chair of the jazz studies department at the conservatorium.
He was invited to perform at the Montreux Jazz Festival in 1972[citation needed] and later the Newport Jazz Festival.[citation needed]
He has performed to normally classical music audiences through tours with Musica Viva and Australian Broadcasting Corporation concert series.
Burrows fronted the nationally televised show The Don Burrows Collection for six years. He has an extensive recording career in his own right with his groups, and has performed on many more albums with other artists.
In the 1980s, he associated closely with the then young James Morrison.
In the 2000s, Burrow's public profile has receded somewhat as he performs less than he used to.[citation needed]
In 2005 he toured with a small band including renowned Australian jazz pianist Kevin Hunt, Burrows is using his photographic images with his music, in a show called Stop, Look and Listen.
