“An extraordinary collective of musicians from around the world, playing wondrous music by composer Tony Haynes.”
“a powerfully diverse band with an optimistic message. These musicians have honed their skills and collaborated as a family for 40 years and their chemistry is one to immerse yourself in.”
Tony Haynes 1941-2024
With deep sorrow we announce the death of Tony Haynes, Grand Union’s Composer and Creative Director for over 40 years. We feel honoured to have worked with him, and to have shared in his imagination and vision.
We are truly grateful for the huge legacy of intercultural music and songs he dedicated his working life to, and will never forget our inspirational founder and treasured friend.
The Grand Union ‘family’ looks forward to keeping Tony’s creative flame burning as we go into the future with him watching from the wings.
