Felix Bornholdt is a New Zealand-born pianist and composer, known for his active involvement in the Australian improvised music scene and as a member (until recently) of the band Lime Cordiale. He has a rich musical background, influenced by a diverse range of genres from ECM and Bach to avant-garde jazz, which he was exposed to during his childhood. Bornholdt’s career highlights include extensive touring across the USA, Europe, and the UK, and the release of his debut solo piano album, Man Overboard, in June 2023. We chatted with Felix just a few days before he announced his (amicable) departure from Lime Cordiale.
